I've added tags and categories to a custom post, but the search bar doesn't find them when I use it. It does find the 'uncategorized' category (default category) that's inherent in wordpress though. The Categories I've entered show up in the sidebar, as well as w/the custom post type (as do the tags I've entered).

What am I missing?

Any public queryable post types should already be included in the search, unless custom code or a plugin is intercepting search queries and modifying query parameters(or your custom post type is not public). – t31os Mar 28 '11 at 12:10
