I asked my husband where wanted to go for honeymoon and he said anywhere I want as long as we get to go fishing. Booked fishing trip and was best fishing trip I’ve ever been on. Rafael was amazing, great conversation, taught me that fishing for tarpon is much different than any other fishing. I try to follow recommendations as much as possible. We lost a couple in the beginning but I had the amazing experience of catching huge tarpon. It was a work out and he put up a good fight. So grateful for this fishing trip. My husband had a blast and had to help me hold up fish for picture cause he was huge. My husband had the time of his life and also caught some big ones!! We would highly recommend Rafael!!!

Captain Rafael is definitely one of the best Captain in catching tarpons, he helped us caught a few good tarpons, and also taught us a lot of knowledge of the tarpons and the backwater. It was our pleasure to fish with Captain Rafael. One thing to mention, tarpons are extremely hard to catch species, people with no fishing experiences are likely to lose a lot of fish, landing one or two is very good already.So this is why I am really tired of reading stupid reviews wrote by stupid people who had never done any research about tarpon fishing. And I really feel sorry for the Captain since I know how desperate it is to fish with stupid people.

Great communication with Captain Rafa after we had made the booking.  We had originally booked a 2p trip but Captain Rafa called that morning and suggested we leave earlier for better fishing - great call!  Bait all ready and we were fishing in a few minutes.  My friend had planned to watch but after 1st fish he joined in.  Captain Rafa was working the whole time - baiting, a lot of chum, answering questions and very patient with two novices.  We broke a rod tip but no big deal to Rafa.  Eight tarpon in total - great experience and one of the highlights of our trips to PR.  Captain Rafa was great - highly recommended!

Myself and five friends went out with Captain Rafael, due to heavy rains in recent weeks fishing was slow, but captain Rafael was adept at getting bait, and finding where the fish were. We were all new to tarpon fishing and the captain told us everything we needed, to land fish. Several of our group got sick half way through the trip, so I was the only person to continue the second half of the trip, and captain Rafael helped me land two species on my bucket list, and a wild fish story for the ages. I highly recommend this charter!!!

Great captain. Great experience. You can tell that he has a true passion for fishing and a vast amount of knowledge. Compared to other private charters I have done before were they park the boat and sit in the same spot all day even if there is no fish. Rafael was dead set on finding fish and moved to different spots throughout the day to assure that we were able to have a chance at fighting some tarpon. I will definitely be using his services again in the future for tarpon and hopefully other species
