We at Team Searcher were excited to get our first trip of 2021 away from the dock and take some anglers fishing! The dockside maintenance is complete and there’s reports of yellowtail at the islands. We’re scheduled for Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through April for some fun, full-day trips (5:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m). Targets will be yellowtail, rockfish, and calico bass.
Book at spot on FishermansLanding.com or call at 619-221-8500. See you aboard!
Welcome to a segment we are calling “Catching up with Anglers!”
We love to stay in touch with our Searcher family to share 🎣fish stories, recreate the excitement, swap tackle tips, reunite with old friends and maybe make new ones. Let’s catch up with an angler, a special, long-time Searcher family member, Chris Flaxington!
What’s your typical day like?: On weekdays, I get up for work at 3:00am and go to bed at 11:00 pm. Spend day at work then go home and take care of my 27 year old handicapped son and then proceed with my late afternoons. Prior to Covid I used to coach club soccer. With Covid here, Logan and I spend lots of time working on our boat.
Share your best tackle tip: My best tackle tip is don’t get caught up in all the hype of new expensive gear. Fish don’t know what make of gear you’re using.
Bucketlist fish/fish you haven’t caught but want to? Opah
Happy Tackle Tip Thursday! Today we have a very special guest and Searcher family member Pete G. from Let’s Talk Hook Up! Pete gives us a must- have knot. He is using Seaguar line and Gamakatsu hook for his demo. The San Diego jam is a great connection knot. This is one knot everyone will need.
Our 1.5 day Let’s Talk Hook-up Trips still have space available: Trip 3 (7/6-8) and Trip 21 (9/1-3). There will be tons of fun and giveaways for novice and expert anglers! These are the perfect trips to get offshore to fish from dawn to dark for tuna and yellowtail.
Captain Art will be on Let’s Talk Hook-up Fishing Talk radio show this Sunday, March 21 from 7am-9am! Listen live on the Let’s Talk Hookup App or at The Mightier 1090AM! This is the line to call during the show: 213-432-1090, Ask your question on the air! Fun and fish talk. Don’t miss it.
Huge thank you to Pete G. from Let’s Talk Hook Up and Gamakatsu for the tackle tips.

Welcome to a segment we are calling “Catching up with Anglers!”
We love to stay in touch with our Searcher family to share 🎣fish stories, recreate the excitement, swap tackle tips, reunite with old friends and maybe make new ones. We thought it would be fun to see how our anglers are holding up and share some of their stories. Let’s catch up with an angler.
Today we have a special, long-time Searcher family member and amazing angler Teresa R.
What’s your typical day like?: My favorite part of the day is early morning, enjoying that first cup of fresh coffee! Afterwards reading then planning my sewing projects which are mostly fishing themed such as facial masks, rod covers, tackle bag cover.
Share your best tackle tip: LISTEN to the captain and crew!!! They know and what worked in the morning may change in the afternoon or next day. I’ll watch other anglers for a bit to see what’s working and what isn’t.
What Searcher trip are you most excited about? The Lady Angler trips! I’m looking forward to the 6th annual trip in August 2021. It’s a great way to meet other lady anglers, share tips and make new friends.
Spring fishing is right around the corner! We’ve scheduled the perfect way to get out there and see what’s biting. Weekend 2.5 day trips with only 17 anglers will start the season off right. So much rail space and plenty of time to get to the fish.

We thought it would be fun to see how our anglers are holding up and share some of their stories. Hopefully they can give you ideas of things we can be doing with your time or help you feel better. Let’s catch up with an angler.
Today we have a special, long-time Searcher family member and co-star of our Tackle Talk Live, Logan Flaxington!
What’s your typical day like?:On a typical day, I get up at 7:30, eat breakfast, maybe mess with some of my fishing equipment, then hop on my first zoom call at 8:30. From 8:30 until noon I’m on zoom for my school. After class, I eat a small lunch then go work on more fishing equipment, either experiment with new things, learn new knots, or learn different techniques. After that, I either clean out boat or wash my truck. From there, it usually gets close to dark so I end my day with eating dinner with my family, and watch TV.
Share your best tackle tip:Always feel/check your line, make sure it’s in good shape. You don’t want to hook that once in a lifetime fish after spending thousands of dollars to get the opportunity, and lose it due to a simple knot or line failure.
What Searcher trip are you most excited about? The annual Penn-sponsored trip in September, always been one of my favorite trips to do.
