From the beaches to the flats, Glo#1 Fishing Charters will show you the best of Tampa Bay's inshore fishing. Home to a range of beautiful, delicious, and exciting fish, you can expect a fun-filled and productive day aboard with Captain Juan Herndon. He's always loved helping other people and teaching them how to land that dream catch. Now, doing it as a living, he gets a rush out of seeing people's smile when they reel in a big one.
These shallow waters can be difficult to navigate. Not when you have a 21' Carolina Skiff, though. This light vessel will stay afloat in pretty much any body of water. Powered by a 150 HP Mercury engine, you'll speed off along the bay, before the wireless trolling motor helps you steer in the skinny waters. She comes fitted with all the necessary safety equipment, including an EPIRB, and the captain is fully CPR-trained, for that extra peace of mind.
When out on the fish, try bottom dropping, popping the tops, or trolling while you drift along. With the latest Penn rods and reels, you'll have the best chance of hooking some of these tough-fighting species aboard. Battle it out with the notorious Snook, along with Redfish, and Seatrout. While you'll also go after a range of tasty fish to fill up your fridge. Take home Sheepshead, Tripletail, Snapper, and Mackerel, among many more.
At the end of your trip, Captain Juan will clean and prepare your catch for you to take home for a delicious dinner, and beyond! With water provided and your license taken care of, all that's left for you to do is bring some snacks and drinks aboard and get ready for a productive day with Glo#1 Fishing Charters. An incredible day's inshore fishing in stunning surroundings awaits!

Ryan Coughlin5.0VerifiedFish Fear Us
2 hour trip on November 22, 2025 • 5 adultsCaptain Juan was phenomenal in all aspects. He patiently educated us while being incredibly personable. Within minutes, we were catching fish left and right. The five of us had a great time as rookie fishermen, 10/10 wouldn't pick anyone else to charter with again!

Ashley Baker5.0VerifiedGreat fishing trip for son's 13th birthday!
Half Day Trip (PM) on February 22, 2025 • 2 adultsI flew my son from Ohio to Florida for a 13th birthday present. A weekend at the beach and a charter fishing trip. It was a chilly weekend for Florida, and a little windy, providing some choppy currents. Captain Juan knew where to go to get us on the fish and although not as much was biting as summer time, we still caught lots of fish! We are used to freshwater fishing and Captain Juan was able to teach us the ropes and new techniques of fishing in the big blue. My son learned a lot and we had a great time. We took our sheepshead and mangrove snapper to a restaurant to cook up for us and had more dinner than we could even finish! He was on time, professional, and was very experienced at doing this. Would highly recommend booking with Captain Juan! We will be back some time again. Hopefully in warmer weather. :)
Richard HammonsRepeat angler5.0VerifiedJune Boys Trip
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 25, 2025 • 3 adultsCaptain Juan was a fantastic host! He was accommodating and accepted us with a last minute booking after our initial reservation was canceled by another charter. His communication with us was excellent. It was a blessing in disguise because we couldn't have asked for a better captain than Juan. His boat and equipment were nice and he was very friendly and knowledgeable. I will be back down in a few months for another trip and I won't have to waste my time searching for another charter as I'll definitely just book with Juan again. Thanks brother! 🤙
Troy Coville5.0VerifiedCapt Juan did not disappoint!
Half Day Trip (AM) on June 7, 2024 • 3 adultsCapt Juan Herndon, hosted me and my group of friends that came in from out of town for a fishing trip. The communication was great from the very beginning and he made sure to answer our questions and let us know everything we needed before we went out. We met him at the marina on time and within 10 mins of heading out we already had our first fish in the boat. He kept us on top of fish for the entire half day trip and made the whole experience enjoyable by taking great care of us. I’m already looking at the calendar to book our next trip and would highly encourage anyone who’s considering a great day of fishing on the bay to do the same. Capt Juan was simply awesome! Thank you!

Your captain
St. Petersburg, Florida, United States
A fisherman for most of his life, Captain Juan always enjoyed fishing with other people and sharing his tips and expertise with others. The natural next step was to become a captain. He did so in 2016 and still gets a thrill every time he's out on the water, especially when seeing people catch their first fish thanks to his help. The most rewarding thing, for him, is seeing other people catch their daily limit or their dream, big catch.
