Glo 1 Fishing Charters

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!

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.!!!  

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!
