Dry Dock 2023 has Begun!

January 4th, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog|

Once again we are out of the water and in our annual dry-dock period at Al Larson Boat Shop in San Pedro. The boat is in excellent shape.

We took the props off to have them tuned up. As part of our repower project, we are taking the propellor shafts out to check them and change the cutlass bearings.

Tackle Tip Thursday Vol. 211 (Seasickness Prevention)

December 29th, 2022|Captain Mike's Blog, Tackle Tip Thursday|

Let’s face it–seasickness happens! And when it does, it can cut into valued time at the rail. In order to protect yourself from seasickness, there are over-the-counter and prescribed medications you can get ahead of time to prevent the onset of nausea. Team Searcher also recommends that in addition to looking into the brand name makers of seasickness prevention medications, you should also know about a generic option: Meclizine, which can ease the symptoms that cause the discomfort of seasickness. If you are new to saltwater fishing, it is an extremely good idea to research these products so you can get the best experience on the water possible. Thank you to Carl from Fishermans Landing for sharing a few ideas in this video.
