Captain
Torre Palmeno

Member since March 2021 Big Pine Key, United States
Background
Captain Torre's roots run deep in the Florida Keys, where he was born and raised. With over 15 years of experience exploring the waters of the Lower Keys, he knows these waterways like the back of his hand. Growing up as a native of Big Pine Key, he spent his days free diving for Lobsters and spearfishing for meals right off his dock, starting when he could barely hold a fishing rod. His heart belongs to the ocean, and his greatest hope is to share his knowledge with you during your adventure together!
Techniques
Live bait fishing, yellow tailing, bottom fishing, spearfishing
