Old Salt Charters
Old Salt Charters
Join Old Salt Charters for fun inshore, nearshore, and flats fishing trips. Starting out of Port Isabel, Texas, you and Capt. Michael Barrera will go to the area’s best spots in search of various quality fish. Anglers of all skill levels are welcome and kids are encouraged to join in the fishing fun.
Your journey starts on a 20’ Shallow Stalker Bay boat that can take up to 4 guests fishing. It’s powered by a 150 HP Suzuki engine, has got a livewell to supply you with live bait, and it also has an ice box for storing your fish and drinks.
There are a number of fishing techniques you can try out, including bottom fishing, popping, drift fishing, and Flounder gigging. The choice of fish species is excellent. You can catch Mangrove and Lane Snapper, King Mackerel, Black Drum, Speckled Trout, Snook, and more. Feel free to bring your kids along and make the trip even more fun. You can choose if you’ll release the fish you catch or take it home with you.
Capt. Michael will provide you with all the rods, reels, tackle, lures, and water. He’ll also clean and fillet your catch free of charge. Yours is just to bring fishing licenses and some food.
Pack your stuff and hop aboard, Old Salt Charters is waiting for you!

Old Salt made our trip good
Old Salt captain had a family emergency but set us up with Captain Kevin. He work hard for us to catch fish on a day that was a slow fish day. Kevin fought for us to limit out. He is experienced & knows the waters. Enjoyed our trip & the fish we caught.

3/4 Winter AM Trip
Half day with Captain Mike
Trip started off slow and there wasn't much action, we caught several skip jack and one keeper speckle trout, but Captain Mike didn't give up! He put us on some big black drum and some sheep's head!! It was my 8 year old son's first trip he managed to land 2 big drum one was too big and the other was just right. I caught one keeper and one was oversize. We also landed several sheep's head but they were all too small. Captain Mike was very professional, and I would recommend Old Salt Charters to everyone of all ages.
