Good evening anglers,
We ended an awesome trip this afternoon. We started in the morning fishing lingcod and vermilion rockfish, and we had some nice ones. We slid offshore before lunch and saw scattered sign of 60-100lb bluefin. No real concentration just loose fish. We tried a few times for no bites so we called it around 2pm, so the crew could get the boat cleaned up. This was our last trip of the year
I just wanted to take a minute on behalf of Josh, myself and the crew on Searcher to say thanks to everyone who came out fishing with us this year. What a great year from 100lb bluefin to wahoo, and from May to November!
We had a great year and a great time fishing with all of you. Josh and I appreciate everyone’s support with our new venture.
We look forward to seeing everyone next year, and if you didn’t get a chance to come out with us this year, now’s your chance to jump on a 2024 trip before they fill up! Check on current openings here: 2024 Searcher Schedule
We’ll be hauling the boat out for dry dock and maintenance next month and getting ready for next year. See you anglers in the spring!
Happy holidays,
Captain Mike, Chef Josh and the boys
OWNERS’ NOTE: Art and celia would like to add our best holiday greetings and gratitude for our customers and crew.
We are especially proud of how Captain Michael and Chef Joshua have continued the high quality operation of Searcher Sportfishing, and we look forward to their increased involvement and ownership. They are the next caretakers of Searcher and we couldn’t be more confident in her future.
Great job to the entire 2023 TEAM Searcher!
