jackAiIconJack AI Customer Experience Snapshot

Captain Mike consistently puts clients on diverse fish species throughout South Texas bay waters, with customers catching trout, red drum, sheepshead, silver perch, and black drum even during challenging windy conditions. His local knowledge shines as he moves between multiple productive spots when fishing starts slow, ensuring non-stop action at every location. First-time anglers particularly appreciate how Mike provides all necessary supplies and teaches proper techniques step-by-step. Customers consistently highlight Mike's exceptional hospitality and personal approach, remembering everyone by name and creating memorable experiences especially for young anglers. Parents love watching their kids land large drum and try different fishing methods under his patient guidance. Many families return within weeks for another trip, and Mike often shares his catch-cleaning expertise, sending guests home with perfectly prepared fish for dinner.

Mike placed a sheep's head and a large black drum in front of us. My 8-year-old kid managed to land two large drum on his first trip; one was too large, while the other was just right. I would advise everyone of all ages to book a charter with Old Salt Charters since Captain Mike was highly professional.
