“One of the most enjoyable things I’ve done has been teaching my son Evan to fish. Evan received a fly rod for Christmas when he was five and caught his first bonefish when he was six. We regularly fish together on weekends and when I have a day off. I expect him to be guiding clients in a few more years.”

Captain Dustin Harrison (holding tarpon, above) is a USCG Master and a fishing fanatic! He has worked as a fishing guide in Alaska for 10 seasons and is returning to the warmer waters of the VI for his fourth winter as a fly fishing guide. This guy loves to fish! It’s not uncommon for him to fish all day on the boat and then fish from a kayak at night in the harbor for fun! He works for Arawak from November to April each year.
