December Breeze
The chilly weather has ignited the enthusiasm of our inshore fishing, Redfish, snook, and trout! With improving water clarity and decreasing temperatures in Tampa Bay, the current conditions are ideal for the exciting sight casting of big redfish and snook in shallow waters. The combination of substantial tides and optimal water temperatures has our large predatory fish actively feeding throughout the day.

Tampa Bay Fishing
Hello fellow anglers, Captain Juan here, reporting from the vibrant waters of Tampa Bay, Florida. The fishing scene has been nothing short of exhilarating lately, with some fantastic catches that have left us all grinning from ear to ear. As we sail out into the bay, the anticipation in the air is palpable. Our target? The sought-after "Big 3" – Tarpon, Redfish, and Snook. These prized species have been showing up in good numbers, providing us with some thrilling battles and rewarding moments. Tarpon's acrobatics are a true spectacle, while Redfish and Snook never fail to test our angling skills. The water temperatures have been ideal, gradually warming up and luring various fish into the shallower waters near mangroves and grass flats. This has led to some exciting inshore action, with Trout, Jack Crevalle, and Flounder joining the mix. The tides have played a crucial role in dictating our strategies, and I'm pleased to report that our careful observations have paid off, resulting in successful outings. Our trusty 21’ Carolina Skiff, paired with the dependable 150 HP Mercury engine, has enabled us to navigate with ease, even in trickier shallow spots. The wireless trolling motor has proven invaluable for stealthily gliding through narrower passages, ensuring we don't miss out on any opportunities. Safety remains paramount, as always. Our vessel is equipped with an EPIRB for added security, and I'm CPR-trained to provide you with complete peace of mind during our adventures. If you're ready to experience the thrill of reeling in these remarkable species against the backdrop of Tampa Bay's stunning vistas, join me aboard Glo 1 Fishing Charters. Let's create memories, share stories, and celebrate the beauty of angling in these pristine Florida waters.
Ratings & Reviews Summary

Captain Juan demonstrated a keen understanding of optimal fishing spots, showcased impressive boat handling skills, and provided clear instructions for catching local species. I would unquestionably choose to embark on another water adventure with him.

Juan and a million!!! After searching for a charter for me, my wife, and my sister I chose Juan based on one thing…fun. Most of the reviews I read talked about his “contagious jovial laugh”, which shows he’s an easy goin feller…and he was. Loved laughing at jokes, bad casts, and anything else one would consider funny. Just an all around good man. We had never fished on the ocean from a boat like this and Juan made the experience as comfortable as one can do for their guests. We fished under the skyway bridge and caught three different species such as Sheepshead, grey snapper, and the occasional red snapper. All were turned into amazing tacos with citrus toppings. Finger lickin good.!!!

I flew my son down from Ohio to Florida for his 13th birthday, treating him to a weekend at the beach and a guided fishing charter. The weather was a bit cool and breezy for Florida, which made for some choppy water, but Captain Juan knew just where to go. Even though it wasn’t peak season, we still caught a variety of fish and had a blast doing it! Coming from a freshwater background, we appreciated how Captain Juan patiently walked us through the techniques for fishing saltwater. My son picked up a lot of new skills, and we both had a memorable experience. We brought our mangrove snapper and sheepshead to a nearby restaurant and enjoyed an incredible feast—so much that we couldn’t even finish it all. Captain Juan was prompt, professional, and clearly knows his stuff. I’d absolutely recommend booking a trip with him—we’ll definitely be back when the weather’s a bit warmer!

Booking a fishing charter was a new experience for me, and it turned out to be fantastic. Captain Juan was not only amicable but also well-versed in locating fish. His valuable insights on casting, hooking, and reeling proved incredibly helpful. I'm eagerly looking forward to my next fishing trip with him!

During our Florida trip, my wife and I, first-timers in saltwater fishing, seized the opportunity to give it a shot. Our experience with Captain Juan of Glo#1 Fishing Charters couldn't have been more ideal. For beginners like us, it's the perfect choice. His expertise is second to none, from fishing insights to the best spots for reeling 'em in. The captain's awesomeness and the trip itself were truly incredible. Without a doubt, if we find ourselves in the area again, Captain Juan will be our first call!

Despite the scorching August weather, Captain Juan went above and beyond to lead us to the fish, despite their reluctance to bite. It remained a fantastic day out on the water. Juan expertly managed all our gear, baiting, and even stepped in for casting when necessary. He's an incredibly pleasant individual. Many thanks, Juan!
