Background
Captain Ted Donald is a licensed USCG Master Mariner who has been fishing, sailing, and diving since the early 80’s. His home ports have included Australia, Canada, and Hawaii before coming to San Diego some 20 years ago. He has worked as a Dive Instructor and Advanced Dive Master since the 80’s when he dove professionally in Australia. Ted’s love for fishing began back in Canada as a kid. Fishing since a young kid in the lakes, then moving to the ocean in his early 20's, Ted has been connected with the ocean ever since. His passion for the water is evident in his love for fishing, sailing, diving, and surfing. Captain Ted has an eye for detail and a great demeanor. Your positive, safe and enjoyable experience with Captain Ted is a given. Giving you the best possible opportunity to land your limit of fish is his highest priority!
Techniques
My preferred style of fishing depends on what they are biting on and the region to which I am fishing :-)
