whats the difference between a marlin and swordfish2007-11-24 23:43:31

both fish looks the same,are they different?

Answers:

The marlin is a large game fish. It has an elongated body up to 2.5 m long, a spear-like snout, and a long rigid dorsal fin which extends forwards to form a crest. Marlin are fast swimmers, occurring in all seas and hunting small and large fish.

Swordfish are large, highly migratory, predatory fish characterized by a long, flat bill in contrast to the smooth, round bill of the marlins. They are a popular sport fish, though elusive. Swordfish are elongated, round-bodied, and lose all teeth and scales by adulthood. They reach a maximum size of 14 ft and 1,190 lb.

Hope I could help. Good Luck


I think that they're just from different parts of the world.
many things, but the easiest way is by looking at their dorsal (back) fin. the swordfish is like a sharks and the marlins is more like a sail.
