2021 Atlantic Swordfish Landing Updates
Landings information for North Atlantic and South Atlantic swordfish is posted monthly throughout the year. Catch statistics from previous years are available below or by contacting Steve Durkee at (202) 670-6637.
NOAA Fisheries estimates landings using commercial dealer reports and reports by anglers in the Highly Migratory Species Non-Tournament Recreational Swordfish and Billfish Landings Database and the Recreational Billfish Survey.
These estimates are subject to late reporting and do not include discards. Totals are reported in metric tons dressed weight (1 metric ton is equal to 2,204.6 pounds).

The table below provides preliminary landings estimates and remaining quotas as of December 31, 2021, for the Atlantic swordfish fisheries for the 2021 fishing year. We estimate landings using commercial dealer reports and reports by anglers in the HMS Non-Tournament Recreational Swordfish and Billfish Landings Database and the Recreational Billfish Survey. Please note that these estimates are subject to late reporting and do not include discards. Totals are reported in metric tons (mt) dressed weight (dw); 1 mt is equal to 2,204.6 pounds.
