There’s a fish with your name on it in Miami, and Miami Beach Inshore Fishing Charters will help you catch it! Captain Richard will be your guide, which allows you to benefit from years of local experience.

Top targets include Snook, Tarpon, Spotted Seatrout, Great Barracuda, Flounder, Jack Crevalle, Permit, Pompano, Bonnethead Shark, Mangrove Snapper, and more if conditions allow. During the trip, you might be spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, or bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Richard also offers fly fishing, but you may need to bring your own fly gear.

If you’re traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! Children must wear life vests, so find out if the appropriate size is available on board. Snacks are also a good idea to keep their stamina going!

You’ll cast lines from a 2025 21’ Frontier center console with room for four passengers. Rods, reels, tackle, and lures are ready for you. Live bait is available, but it’s good to ask about this so you know if you’ll be catching it yourself.

The charter boat covers your fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don’t know what to expect, ask the captain.

You can’t go wrong when you bring sunglasses, and sunblock (non-spray). Bottled water will be offered, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Give yourself something to look forward to, and book a trip with Miami Beach Fishing Charters!

A Fantastic Day on the Water with Richard Hernandez – Highly Recommend!
on April 1, 2025

I had the pleasure of booking an inshore fishing trip with Richard Hernandez of Miami Beach Fishing Charters, and it truly exceeded all expectations. From the moment we set foot on the boat, everything was seamless, professional, and most importantly—fun! Richard is an absolute expert when it comes to fishing, and his knowledge of the local waters is unmatched. He knew exactly where to take us, and it wasn’t long before we were reeling in some great catches. The boat was well-maintained and comfortable, offering a smooth ride even as we ventured out into the open water. We were lucky enough to have perfect weather that day, with calm seas and clear skies, which made the experience even more enjoyable. What really stood out was Richard’s approach. He was incredibly patient, giving great tips on technique and providing hands-on help when needed. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or a first-timer, he makes sure everyone is having a great time. I was especially impressed with his attention to detail and how he made sure each guest had the best chance of catching fish. It wasn’t just about fishing—it was about making sure we had an unforgettable experience. Aside from the fishing, the whole crew was friendly and welcoming. They made us feel like part of the Miami Beach Fishing Charters family. We even got to take some photos with our catches before releasing them back into the water, which was a nice touch. If you’re looking for an authentic and enjoyable fishing experience in Miami, I highly recommend booking a trip with Richard Hernandez. Whether you’re after a trophy catch or just looking to enjoy a peaceful day on the water, you won’t be disappointed. I’ll definitely be back for another trip!

Nonstop Inshore Action with Capt. Richard in Miami!
on April 6, 2025

Our inshore trip with Capt. Richard Hernandez was an absolute blast! He had us working the flats and mangroves, landing a mix of snook, jack, and even a few surprise tarpon. Richard knew exactly where to go and how to fish each spot depending on tide and wind. His energy, knowledge, and quality gear made it a smooth and exciting day on the water. If you’re in Miami and want to bend some rods, this is the trip to book!
