Born and raised in Florida. Grew up on the water. Parents owned a shrimp boat business, so all I ever did as a kid was fish. I know the waters of Miami very well. I have over 20 years of experience.

    Awesome fishing guide!

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    Raul was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He put us on the barracuda right away and my husband and I quickly landed one big boy each! He was a great guide and worked his tail off to keep on fish all day long. Would definitely repeat!

    Wonderful Day on the water with this amazing power duo. They handled the fish like the sport it is. 🎣

    Took wife and 2 kids on a half day. Fantastic! Capt Raul got us right on the fish. Was patient with the line tangles and gear issues of kids. Great day. Great captain.

    Even with some tough weather conditions this Family didn’t let it stop them from having fun.

What's biting with Icbluecharters in Miami

Fishing continues to be very good, with the Sailfish bite picking up in earnest near shore. Blackfin Tuna and Wahoo can also be caught over the reefs, while inshore action remains as good as ever.
