To say that fishing is the central passion of Don Dubin’s life might be an understatement. The Chicago native grew up fishing in public parks on the city’s West Side. Now in his 70s and a Legendary Angler inducted into the Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame, you can regularly find him casting his reel along the lakefront or on the banks of the Chicago River.
