Capt. Peter Lawson-Johnston grew up in Connecticut just outside of New York City, He was very fortunate to be able to spend every summer with his family at their house on Martha’s Vineyard, Mass. This is where he learned to fly fish and developed his passion for saltwater angling. He remembers being 8 years old in his grandparents backyard one summer, and hid dad said it was time to learn how to cast a fly rod.
