About this episode
Richard Stanczyk has had a large life as a captain, angler, and business owner. His impact is nothing shy of remarkable. His relationship with Swordfish was a game changer. At one time everyone thought these denizens of the deep could only be targeted in the dead of night. Richard helped evolve this quarry so they could be successfully caught while the sun is high in the sky. Today Richard’s son, Nick, aboard his boat “Broad Minded” is arguably the best sword-fisherman on the planet. As much as Richard loved to drop lines into the deep for these monsters, his passion for big bonefish is just as rich. Stanczyk had great foresight as well - after purchasing the Famed Bud N’ Mary’s Marina in 1978 and grew it to where it docks over 50 boats today. Legendary in every way, Richard shares his enormous life from Bills to Bones, his family, and his iconic marina. Hope you all enjoy his story…
