’’Lassoing mountain lions, hunting the grizzly bear, and stalking the fierce tropical jaguar, former pastimes of ours, are hardly comparable to the pursuit of Xiphias gladius.(Swordfish) It takes more time, patience, endurance, study, skill, nerve, and strength, not to mention money, of any game known to me ... .’’ So wrote Zane Grey in his Tales of Swordfish and Tuna, citing the swordfish as ’’the noblest warrior of all the sea fishes.’’
Many sporting enthusiasts have said ’’The swordfish offers the best fight of all fish,’’ and we believe them!
This long out of production design for the needlepoint artist pays homage to the sport fisherman and one of his greatest challenges.
Highly requested, and rarely found, make this wonderful design one of your great ’catches’ this season!
