Old School Fishing Charters
Spring is here! Migrations of many species of fish are occurring now and fish are starting to bite. I have tracked and have forecast their migration. I know where to find Speckled Trout, Red Drum, Sheepshead, Flounder. Book now and because it is off-season we can customize it for your exact needs, day, and time!
Explore the gorgeous waters of North Carolina and have a great fishing experience with Old School Fishing Charters! Captain Michael Rosso will meet you in Wanchese and take you to some of the best inshore and nearshore fishing spots. Experienced and friendly, Captain Michael will make sure you enjoy your stay on board and return with a good catch. Join in and create some great memories fishing!
Old School Fishing Charters features a 21' Carolina Skiff Ultra Elite Series boat called Touch of Grey. She can fit 6 guests and is equipped with a 150 HP Suzuki four stroke outboard engine. It also boasts a Minnkota Terova trolling motor, an 8' Power Pole shallow water anchor, Simrad Pro 9 GPS / fishfinder / depth finder, and a Northstar VHF radio. There's also an ice-box you can use and a livewell.
You'll go after Black Seabass, Flounder, Weakfish, Sheepshead, Striped Bass, Redfish, and many more species. To attract them, you can use light tackle bottom fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, popping, and drift fishing. Feel free to bring kids on your trip as well as to keep the fish you catch.
Captain Michael provides all the fishing tackle manufactured in the US by Penn, live bait, lures, and he also covers you for fishing licenses. Just bring your favorite food and drinks before you depart and you'll be set to go.
Feel free to message the captain about when you want to fish and how long you want to fish. He's flexible and reasonable! Having lived and worked on the water for 20 years, the captain can give you a tour of the Nothern OBX from the perspective of the Sound waters.

We are first timers visiting OBX, I was looking to book a fishing trip to gift my boyfriend for his birthday. After searching so many pages I found Old School Charters and Captain Mikes video. From the time of booking Mike was very responsive and helpful even contacted me the day before because the day we were set to go was going to be windy for the trip. We chose another day and set out on our trip. Captain Mike was very friendly,. knowledgeable and accommodating. We caught a few fish before an unfortunate downpour arrived and had to cut our trip short. Despite the weather changes we had a blast. Definitely recommend and hope to return for another trip in the future
I had a blast Janice and Tim! You now will always ahve a friend in the OBX! I am so happy for you both and wish you the best!🙏
Captain Mike was fantastic! we had 2 combined families with 3 kiddos (10,7,3) and 3 adults and Captain Mike was patient and helped make sure each kiddo felt like a pro! His boat and equipment was great. highly recommend!
Ashley, Marissa, Isabella, Evelyn, Vinny and LJ! What a good time! We didnt get the big one but everyone caught fish and enjoyed the time on the water. Thank you so much for fishing with me today!

Booked with Captain Mike as a gift for my boyfriend’s birthday. Captain Mike was great, tried many spots to put us on fish. He told us about a couple of trails to ride our scooters on and where we could fish from while we were in town too. No luck on the fish but it was still fun being out on the water. Will definitely book again when back!
Thank you so much for fishing with me Johnathan and Tia. Despite, the poor fishing I enjoyed our morning on the water. It was great meeting and hanging with you. Hope you come back to the OBX and fish with me again!
Had a great afternoon out with Capt Michael - a very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating person indeed. Boat was well equipped and tackle was well up to the task. Got a few bites too. My son thinks it was the highlight of our time on OBX. Will be booking again next opportunity.
Thanks so much! Cant wait to see you next time!

Fishing with Captain Mike on an overcast day, caught so some bait fish and headed out to the old bridge for trout fishing. I caught a Citation sheepshead, it was huge fish. The fight was a LOT OF FUN, more than I expected. Everyone was excited, huge fish. Finished the day off with some trout. GREAT TIME, going back in October.
Hey John! I have to give you and Heyder props! You guys are hard-core and didn’t stop working despite the terrible conditions. So happy it paid off. I am so looking forward to fishing with you again this fall! Thanks so much!
