swordfishbill

Does anyone know how to calculate the length of a swordfish, by the length of the bill? I recently came upon a 35" bill.

This fish is only about 90 pounds +/- but should give you an idea how long the bill is in relation to the rest of the fish. I would say a three foot bill isn't from a very large fish. Hope this helps you out.

I recently came upon a very large bill from the government. and I have calculated that the body of the govt. is too big.
