Pete’s addiction to fishing started when he was 8 years old fishing with his father from their boat moored in San Diego. The family moved to Los Angeles so that his father- Marv Gray- could pursue his career as a talk show host on KABC in Los Angeles. The boat moved with them and Pete spent many years fishing and diving in the Santa Monica Bay. Moving back to his fishing roots in San Diego in the early 80’s, Pete has spent many days fishing for a variety of species on the waters of southern California. His first Parker was a 23 foot walk around cuddy, and Pete currently owns a 21 foot center console Parker, which he keeps in the water in front of his office in Point Loma. Pete can be found on his Parker fishing for everything from inshore calico bass and yellowtail to offshore tuna and marlin.

Pete is founder and host of the west top rated fishing talk show- Let’s Talk Hook-up, heard every Saturday and Sunday 7am to 9am on XX- 1090 AM. The show features expert guests and fishing reports primarily on saltwater fishing in the west. The nature of the show also gives Pete the opportunity to travel with groups of listeners to great fishing destinations like Alaska, Baja’s East Cape, Panama, Costa Rica, Hawaii, plus long range trips from San Diego, and others. With all the exotic fishing that he is able to do, nothing is more satisfying than having a great trip aboard his Parker right in our back yard.
