Blue water is in close right now. Bite seems to be better in the afternoon right now than in the morning, but we've been catching them. Bottom fishing has been great and so has blue water trolling. A lot of shark activity so we're having to get them to the boat fairly quick before the sharks get on them.

Shark fishing has been great this summer with some nice trout and redfish mixed in. We've been catching fish all over Galveston Bay and looking forward to our fall fishing and the exciting Bull Redfish run!

Fishing has been pretty good, the weather has been perfect, light winds and cool breeze in the morning, been fishing top waters in the morning and past and also, still using live croaker depending on the client and customer ability. September is the lowest or least windy month of the year, next month is my favorite month of the year, a little cooler and No pressure from fisherman!! Book a trip to wade or fish out of the boat!

    Trip: 4-6 Hr Inshore Trip

  • ★★★★★
    My wife and I and 13 year old son went on a six hour spearfishing tour with Torre and it was by far the highlight of our trip to the Keys. We ended up with a fridge full of lobster, snapper, cero mackerel and yellow jack and we turned it into sashimi, ceviche, lobster macaroni and beer battered fish. We saw hammerheads, goliath groupers and sea turtles. My wife and I had never spear fished before but we had a great time; much better than fishing. Torre was an amazing guide and clearly knew where to go and what to look for. Next time we’re in the Keys, this will be our first stop.
