As a young boy, Captain Pedro spent his days commercial fishing with his father and grandfather in Key West as a third-generation fisherman. During high school, Pedro spent the entirety of his free time at the fish house soaking in the fishing experience and knowledge of his father and grandfather.
However, upon graduating high school, Pedro drifted away from commercial fishing and landed on the shores of Corporate America. After decades in different leadership positions in various companies, he realized that despite many years that had passed between him and his time commercial fishing, his heart couldn’t shake the call of the ocean.
In the end, Pedro decided to take the plunge and leave Corporate America to chase his dream alongside his wife and children, and together, they created Pescatarian Fisheries.
The memories formed during his years on the commercial fishing boat with his family helped shape Pedro into the fisherman and man that he is today. Now with children of his own, Captain Pedro aims to share the fond memories of the ocean with his children, helping mold a fourth generation of fishermen, and sharing his love of the ocean and fishing with his guests.
The Boat
When you book a charter with us, you will fish aboard the “Pescatarian.” She is a beautiful 29’ Ocean Runner center console powered by twin 250hp Mercury V8 Four Strokes. The Pescatarian was locally built by a family-owned builder in the heart of Miami.
