Bait & Tackle

Bait, Tackle & Local Know-How

Open early for the morning bite — live bait, a full tackle wall, ice, pole rentals and honest advice on where they’re biting.

The original business

The shop that started it all in 1929

Before the grill, before the charters, there was the bait shop — and it’s still the heart of the place. Stop in for live shrimp and bait, terminal tackle, line, ice and cold drinks, then walk straight out to the dock.

Not sure what to throw? Ask. The folks behind the counter fish this water every day.

Opens at 6am

The bait shop opens an hour before the grill — bait and ice ready before sunrise, seven days a week.

Bait, Tackle & Rentals

Live & frozen bait, rigs, line, hooks, ice, cold drinks — and pole rentals if you came empty-handed.
