AS HEARD ON LET’S TALK HOOK-UP! Tackle Tip Thursday Vol. 212 (Connection Series: Seaguar Knot)

January 6th, 2024|Captain Mike's Blog, Tackle Tip Thursday|

Happy new year, anglers!  We know you are getting ready for this year’s fishing season, and we can help. Or, we should say…Rick Maxa can help!

We are excited to present our Connection Series debut!  It’s time to brush up on (or see for the first time) a few connection knots that you will surely need to apply when connecting your monofilament and fluorocarbon.  

Rick Maxa, co-owner of Fisherman’s Landing Tackle Shop and co-host of Let’s Talk Hook-Up, generously donated his time to help us kick off this mini-series, with a detailed step-by-step demo of how to perfect a quick yet durable knot: : The Seaguar.

Create your Angler Account!

December 22nd, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, Did You Know?|

Another helpful hint from Land Crew:

Create your Angler Account on SearcherSportfishing.com! This allows you to track your auto-pay payments, add/edit your passport details, and check trip details. Future features will include credit card changes and more.

This feature comes with our new reservations system, so you will need to log-in with your email (make sure it’s the same one we have on file) and select “Forgot Password” to receive a password via email. Log in with that password. Then you can change that password to something you’ll easily remember for the next log-in.

FIRST STEP: Go here SEARCHER SPORTFISHING SCHEDULE page and look in the upper right corner. You’ll see Manage Your Account. Start there and follow the steps to resetting a password.

If you have problems or questions, please call or email the office and I will walk you through it!

Your Booking and Payment Process

December 16th, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog, News|

Hello anglers!

If you thought there were a few differences in scheduling a trip or receiving trip confirmation/receipts from me, you aren’t wrong! Our new reservation software is now integrated into our web site and the trip materials look a bit different. I know this will make our office even more efficient and your payment receipts more timely.

I’ve included a sample confirmation in this post. Note the trip information, your contact details, your trip deposits, and the important “Terms and Conditions.” For now, the Trip reference will be the fishing year and your trip number. This sample shows (“24-30”) which is 2024, trip #30. We will be editing the email text in the future, but you will always recognize our logo and the subject line will contain Searcher Sportfishing. If you are paying for others, their names and payments will be included in your receipt.

Check out the booking system on the schedule page! You’ll be logging in with an account password, so if you need help with that or anything else, please call or email.

  • Phone: 619-226-2403
  • Email: reservations@searchersportfishing.com (This is the email sender for your trip materials, so add it to your approved list!)
  • THANK YOU for your patience as we continue to fine-tune this customized system.

Land Crew Checking In!

December 11th, 2023|Captain Mike's Blog|

Hello anglers!

We are excited about our new reservations system that we know will make booking trips and receiving receipts more efficient and timely! Please note that paperwork such as receipts, statements, and pre-trip documents will look different, so don’t mistake them for junk mail. Emails will come from reservations@searchersportfishing.com. Perhaps adding that email to your approved list will help.

Let me know if you need anything or have questions. Thank you for patience as we get ramped up with this new process so booking your trip is easy!

Happy Tackle Tip Thursday!

Penn Fishing Tackle pro-staffer, Steve Carson, shares why a rail rod (and not one from the 80’s!) is a key piece in your tuna-fishing arsenal. There are many to choose from and many ways each can be used to maximize your reeling in success, so sit back and learn from a master!
