Premier Fishing Tour Guide in Southwest Ranches, FL and Surrounding Areas
Expert Guided Freshwater Fishing Trips with Gear, Lessons, and More
ABOUT US
Welcome To Glades Jet
I'm Capt. Jose Carbonell, a South Florida native with a lifelong passion for fishing the region’s lakes and canal systems. With over two decades of experience, I’ve recently turned my passion into a full-time guiding career, helping anglers of all skill levels discover the thrill of freshwater fishing. I specialize in targeting Peacock Bass, Bullseye Snakehead, and other exciting exotic species.
As a semi-pro bass tournament angler, I stay on top of the latest techniques and love sharing my knowledge—while also learning from others. Whether you're a seasoned angler or trying fishing for the first time, I aim to provide a fun, educational, and action-packed experience on the water.
My fully rigged Stratos 201 Pro Elite is equipped with state-of-the-art Garmin electronics, Panoptix sonar, an 80lb Minn Kota trolling motor with weed cutter, twin 8’ Power-Poles, and a powerful 2020 Yamaha 250hp SHO engine—ensuring a smooth and productive day on the water.
