Good afternoon anglers: Today we are fishing the coastline for yellowtail and have found a few. Best catching results have been an both yoyo jigs and a fly-lined bait.

Good evening anglers,

This afternoon we were able to scratch up some more beautiful wahoo on the troll they seemed to be biting the nomad lures best. Our evening bite on yellowfin tuna was nothing short of spectacular! It was a great way to end the day.

Captain Mike and Dylan B show off one of those quality yellowfin tuna that came aboard today.

We will be leaving tonight and heading to our next destination.

Wish us luck,

Captain Shawn and Team Searcher


Looks like our anglers will be bringing home loads of delicious wahoo! Here’s a recipe from Chef Geri Sue: Coconut-crusted Wahoo

Good afternoon anglers, This morning we awoke to very pleasant seas and calm winds which was delightful for all who were on board. We had a exceptional bite on premium yellowfin tuna ranging from 25 to 45 lbs. We are going to have a quick bite for lunch and start looking for wahoo. Wish us luck, here is Rod C. and Crewman Hector with a nice yellowfin tuna.

Good evening Anglers,
This afternoon consisted of a fantastic sunset bite on quality yellowfin tuna, with fish ranging from 18 to 45 lbs. The best way to get a bite was on a fly lined sardine. We also caught a few fish on flat falls right at dark. All and all it was a fabulous day on the water. We will be staying in the same place for tomorrow, wish us luck. Here is a shot of Dominick V. with his quality yellowfin. ~Captain Shawn and Team Searcher.

Good afternoon anglers:

Today we’ve had a good day of fishing on wahoo, yellowfin tuna and a few dorado, all while on the anchor. The best method of catching fish
today has been with 40 lb mono and fluorocarbon and a 3/0 Owner hook. We have also been getting fish with skip lures, poppers, and wahoo bombs. 
We haven’t been able to do much trolling for wahoo since the wind is up, but we’re looking forward to it tomorrow as the wind is supposed to die down. Wish us luck!
Here is Harlan M. and Captain Mike with a beautiful 60lb wahoo caught on a fly-lined sardine.
