With this knowledge, he is able to teach and educate children as well as adults in the fields of hunting and fishing. By spending the day with Phil, you are not just going fishing or hunting, you are getting true: "On the Water" or "In the Woods" fishing and hunting experiences. Phil looks forward to each and every trip in the hopes of being able to fulfill your dreams of catching that first fish or getting the trophy of a lifetime!!!
