Captain Don Johnson is at the helm of Hot Pursuit Charter Fishing. He’s been fishing the Chesapeake Bay since he was 10 years old and turned this passion for angling into a career as a captain in 2003.  Whether you’re a brand new angler or want to test your skills against these famous waters, Capt. Don has something to offer every guest.

You’ll be fishing from a 40’ Robbins boat that runs on a 450 hp FPT engine. This fishing machine has plenty of room for you and 9 other anglers to be casting off in comfort throughout the day. It has all the necessary navigation and safety gear on board, along with a private head that really comes in handy on longer trips.

Depending on conditions, you might hook into Striped Bass, Bluefish, Black Seabass, Catfish, White Perch, Spanish Mackerel, and plenty more. You’ll target your catch by light tackle fishing, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.
