LEVEL 7
Finned Swordfish
A Swordfish with a confined extra candidate creates targeted eliminations.
How to find it
- Map a near-Swordfish plus its fin.
- Confirm the fin shares a box with a cover-line candidate.
- Remove only candidates that see both relevant endpoints.
Logical demonstration
The violet cells represent the pattern; the gold cell represents the resulting placement or elimination. Verify every highlighted candidate belongs to the required houses before acting.

Common mistakes
- Using cells that do not share the required row, column, box or peer relationship.
- Removing a candidate before confirming every occurrence in the pattern.
- Confusing a possible pattern with a completed logical proof.
