We’ve supposedly passed the end of summer, but for the 20 passengers starting their 7-day trip today, it sure felt “summery”! Warm weather welcomed our passengers departing on their week-long fishing adventure today!
Capt Art was even showing off the new Fishworks design featuring our favorite lady: Searcher!

Trip 26 Sep 21-24 (2.5-day) Sep 22 Midday Report
Howdy anglers,
It’s been a slow morning for us today: there is a sign of fish around, we just haven’t been the chosen ones just yet. The weather is tolerable and we’re hoping for some afternoon action.
More later,
Capt Aaron and the Searcher crew

Trip 25 Sep 13-19 Penn Reels Open Sep 18 Report
Tuesday, September 18, 2017
Hello all,
A travel day today. We had choppy weather above the north end of Cedros island for a few hours last night. Just before daylight the wind and swell subsided and we had a great day on the ocean with light winds and sunny skies. The group broke down their tackle and the crew gave the boat a good scrub! Charley and Dan fed us well with cheeseburgers for lunch and then fresh yellowfin tuna for dinner. Everyone loved the fish with a lime, cilantro butter sauce!!!!
Then the fun began with the final raffle of the trip. Lots of goodies from Steve Carson. A tackle box full of tackle and a Penn rod were the highlights. When we get to the dock we will give away some Penn reels for biggest Yellowtail, wahoo, bottom fish and biggest fish overall. The amount of swag on this trip is great. Thanks to Steve again.
Home tomorrow.
Team Searcher
Trip 25 Sep 13-19 Penn Reels Open Sep 17 PM Report
Hello all,
Windy conditions again today. We stopped just after lunch to try for yellowtail, with the wind the water temperature had dropped significantly so the yellowtail weren’t around. We traveled to the next spot up the coast and there was a sign of good size yellowtail there. We had a few fish on various methods: dropper loop, yo-yo lure, surface lure and a live sardine with a 2 ounce sliding sinker. Here’s Mike and Randy with a nice size yellowtail.
Headed home this evening, jackpot report on Tuesday. It’s been another great Penn Trip this year!
