The Ultimate Versatile Baitfish
The Black Salty is a uniquely engineered baitfish that thrives in both freshwater and saltwater. Hardy, durable, and irresistible to predators, it’s the perfect choice for anglers chasing largemouth bass, hybrid striped bass, catfish, and crappie in ponds or lakes — or those targeting redfish, speckled trout, king mackerel, cobia, and flounder along the coast.
No bait holds up to long casts, warm water, or aggressive strikes quite like the Black Salty.

Freshwater & Saltwater Tough
This fish was developed to thrive under pressure — literally. Whether it’s a day of pond fishing or casting from the bow in the bay, Black Salty holds up better and gets hit harder than nearly any other live bait available. Keep them in a well-aerated tank and watch how long they stay lively.

Questions about this product
How do I choose between pond forage and fishing bait?
Start with the job you need the fish to do. For pond forage, consider the predator species, predator size and whether you want immediate food or a reproducing population. For fishing bait, choose a size suited to the fish you are targeting and check the bait rules for the water you will fish.
Will larger forage fish be protected from predators?
Larger fish can be harder for some predators to swallow, but size alone does not protect them. Match the forage size to the predator fish and your goal. A fish bought as immediate food and a fish bought to establish breeding stock may call for different choices.
Why are baitfish counts approximate on weight-based listings?
Fish of the same species vary in size, so a pound of small fish contains more individuals than a pound of larger fish. Use the selected weight and size grade when comparing packages. Approximate counts help with planning; they are not exact-count packages.
How do I confirm my delivery date?
Please contact us before ordering if you need a particular date. We will confirm the shipping and arrival dates for your order. Availability, permits, weather and carrier service can affect timing. Overnight service describes transit after shipment, not the day after you order.
Can the fish sit on my porch until I get home?
No. Arrange for someone to be present when FedEx delivers, receive the fish immediately and introduce them into their prepared pond or tank within 15 minutes of the logged delivery time. Direct sun, extreme heat or extreme cold can quickly become fatal. If nobody can be there, contact us before the shipment is scheduled.
