Capt. Don runs trips out of Philipsburg aboard a 34' Pursuit boat. These waters are known for Mahi-Mahi and King Mackerel and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or jigging. With a vast knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!
