Our annual 3-day trip over Labor Day Weekend is off and running to the tuna grounds! Anglers were really busy gearing up at the dock before the boat was untied.
Lots of friends and family reunite on this trip every year.
And our newest Team Searcher member, Kermit, was there to say goodbye and good fishing!
It’s Turner’s Time! 
This popular 1.5-day trip is always a blast-you can see how excited the anglers are! There are terrific giveways for each angler and on-board expert pro-staffers, such as Lori Sachau and Jason Rasmussen. Wish them luck as they head off to the tuna grounds. Stay tuned for the report tomorrow.
Our 23 lady anglers left this morning on a 3-day offshore fishing adventure. Some anglers are novices, some are experienced, but they EACH have a brand-new pair of Xtratuf boots, especially made for women! Thank you, Xtratuf!
We’re pretty sure Bootz has met his match with the ladies’ Xtratuf legacy models in blue (on left) and cooper (on right)…sized just for women!
In addition to Team Searcher crew, the ladies have two expert pro-staffers on board, Wendy Tochihara of Izorline and Lori Sachau of Turner’s Outdoorsman in San Marcos, CA. Wendy and Lori have attracted the attention of so many tackle manufacturers who want to put their saltwater gear into the hands of lady anglers. Thank you to Okuma, Accurate, Seeker Rods, Pelagic Gear, Costa sunglasses, Phenix Rods, Tady lures, and so many more that we’ll highlight during the trip. Stand by for more photos of the ladies using their terrific saltwater gear!
These ladies got BOOTZ!
Birthday ladies Janice K and Carol P are celebrating with a fishing trip!
Jan D. came all the way from ENGLAND for her boots…and the chance at SoCal style saltwater fishing with a boatload of lady anglers!

For this trip, a second jackpot is raised and the “Sportsman/woman of the Trip” wins that amount towards a Searcher Sportfishing trip in 2017. Long-time friend to Dick and Searcher, Terry Onishi, re-wraps a rod belonging to Dick and donates the rod and a reel to the on-board raffle, raising even more money. Thank you, Terry!

Proceeds from the second jackpot, sales of raffle tickets on board for fabulous donated items, a donation from Searcher Sportfishing, and money raised through other hi-jinks all goes to PANCAN! Anglers have fun and we support research and education of Pancreatic Cancer. Oh, and there’s a fishing trip in there too!
Thanks to our sponsors, Izorline, Owner Hooks, Aftco, FishBonz restaurant, Calico Rose and so many more!
Potatohead regulars catch up at the dock before boarding.
Lines away and ready to fish (and play lots of practical jokes)!

The Last Chance Bait and Tackle sponsored 3-day trip departed today in beautiful weather with a bunch of happy anglers – they are on their way and will surely have a trip to remember!
Sponsor Megan Merchant brought a bunch of swag to distribute to our lucky passengers!
Stay tuned for regular reports from the field!
The High Desert Communications 3 day charter departed today with a full roster of fun and lively anglers! They let out a cheer as soon as Searcher took off, headed to Everingham Bros. bait receivers to kick off with a load of quality bait for their trip!
Keep tuned to the blog for regular updates!
Pro-staffers Wendy Tochihara of Izorline and Lori Sachau of Turner’s Outdoorsman arrived early yesterday to load their carts of goodies onto the boat for their annual 5-day fishing extravaganzza! Even before Searcher departed from the dock, the happy anglers had already EACH received 3 lures (including 2 Shimano flat-falls!) to add to their tackle boxes!
Capt Ryan is pictured with longtime Searcher friend Thom Carney, who brought him a custom rod from Hyun’s Tackle in Ventura. Awesome! He then piloted the boat to Everingham Bros. to load bait, and then our spirited bunch was headed south. 🙂
Check back for Captain Art’s regular reports from the field! Good angling!
