Trip 25 (6 day) Sep 14-20 Penn Open with Steve Carson is off and running!
Hello anglers,
We departed yesterday on our annual 6-day trip sponsored by Penn University with pro-staffer and saltwater tackle expert, Steve Carson. It’s always a pleasure to have Steve aboard. He brings so much swag for anglers and crew, along with exciting new gear to try out from Penn.
We travelled yesterday and will travel again all day today. We are headed to The Ridge which is a long way to go, but based on the reports from that area, we should be in for an opportunity for some good fishing.We will arrive Friday before lunch.
Today will make good use of our travel time for tackle seminars and lots of rigging-up in order to be ready for arrival to the fishing area. And of course, we’ll have more raffles and giveaways, thanks to Steve and Penn.
Capt Aaron displays the new 2-speed reels anglers can use aboard Searcher. (Nice hat and shirt too!)
We are very grateful to Steve Carson and Penn for the generous gift of 5 FATHOM 40 2-speed reels to add to our collection of Penn reels on board. We’ll be able to loan out these 2-speed reels to anglers!
We loaded them up with spectra and 40 -50 pound line and can’t wait to use them this trip, in the hands of our anglers.
Four anglers on our current trip need loaner gear this trip and Steve Carson is setting them up with Penn equipment from the many outfits he has brought. I’m sure those 4 people will consider purchasing some new Penn gear after this trip.
More later,
Team Searcher
