Best Bait Shop Cambridge Near Me

Daniel Tumbarello: Dan Tumbarello and freins trout photos

Greg Miller: nice service

Bob Conn: Great place for fishing items

Cicero Silva: The owner is super friendly and always gives you a good tips about fishing and lures.

Colby Weston: Great shop. They have a huge selection of fresh and salt water gear. Live bait too, eel, shiners and worms, all well priced.

destiny child: It's a great shop for the local favorites, namely trout and striper. The lure selection for largemouth bass leaves a bit to be desired, but it's not bad. The owner is an absolute GEM of a human being and always happy to share his knowledge.

Laurentiu Craciun: Great bait and tackle shop. You can find anything you need for your fishing. The owner is knowledgeable and helpful.

Leland Dudek: Rodney know the area, and what's hitting. Great location, friendly, and has everything you want for a great day on the water.

A Tenney: After confirming with me they would be open, they were closed when I showed up. Showing up on time is something that takes no effort and shows a complete lack of professionalism. It's disappointing when you want to support local and have to go elsewhere due to incompetence.

Tom Wilhelm: Helpful, old school fishing shop.I just wish he was more reliable. 3 different times this year, I've arrived and discovered he was closed during normal business hours, often for the entire weekend. Suggest you call ahead to make sure the store is open.

Debra Stone: The store sells junk my rod broke first time it was used owner took no responsibility and would not return

Shaun Hayward: Excellent service

T W: I was shocked at how well curated the selection of gear and lures was. I had been going to other stores, and 9 times out of 10 you get some nitwit teenager who has no idea what they are talking about. Rodney was at the counter, he spent almost an hour with me listening to where I fish and what I want to accomplish, and he knows his stuff. I learned a lot and cannot wait to go back after this weekend and share successes and failures. They have LOTS of saltwater tackle...probably the best stocked store around.

Jeffery Zou: Very friendly and super helpful shop keeper! Also a great selection of baits and tackles for a good price.

James Aird: I went to this shop with the intent of supporting a smaller business. The cashier was friendly and provided advice on which rod/reel combo to buy... and I went with his advice... shortly after, the reel started getting stiff, and then the actual rod broke (while casting!)

Michael Westcott: Excellent store.

Lily Brown: friendly, good selection, all around fantastic place to get your gear

Danny Kaiser: I have been fond of fishing for a long time and all my notable trophies are thanks to the tackle of this store. I am their regular customer and will stay with them. This store is the best!

Brent Rowley: Fishing enthusiasts will definitely appreciate this store. Excellent assortment, attentive and understanding staff. I am very pleased with my purchases, I look forward to checking them out :)

Mourad Zine: Highly recommended always having good answers for my question I like the place

erick roskos: Worst bait shop I’ve ever been to. I asked the lady behind the counter where to go surf fishing in the area. She said we don’t know. We don’t fish. She didn’t want to touch the bait and generally acted like she had something better to do than talk to a customer. I cannot recommend going to this place.

Drew Wang: I usually catch mine own bait but when ever I’m in a pinch I can always count on them to have what I need! As a salty angler I can usually count on them to have whatever I need from terminal tackle to rods and reels. The only down side is its cash only but there are like 4 ATMs down the street so it’s not the biggest deal in the world!

E Johnson: They don't like black people... didn't want to sell me anything

Maxwell Magalhaes: Great place, rods, real, bait, tackle and knowledge of the area.

Leonard Brown: Saltwater freshwater license go get them

Rob- -ert: Unprofessional owner and unprofessional daughter. Overpriced gear and tackle. You can get everything for less at Walmart and West Marine in Braintree. There's also another Vietnamese tackle store down the road just before the bridge into Quincy with an honest owner and sales person and fair prices that won't take advantage of you if you're new to fishing.

Jimmy: The owner is a very rude man. I asked him a question and he said I don’t know the law. Answered me like I was bothering him. Worst bait shop in Boston.

Karl Payne: Good selection, reasonable prices and helpful service. Only drawback is cash only transactions.

Francis Grenham: Really great shop. Organized and well staffed! The only drawback was that it is cash only. And, as a business owner I operate off of credit. Massive inconvenience.

Taylor Gulley: Such shops are to me like toy shops for my children. I bought myself a couple of baits for fishing, I will try and come for new ones :)

Dan King: Tony always seems to have what I need for my Fishing Excursions from Fresh Live bait to hooks and lures. He always has a Smile on his face and make going to P.& J. Bait Shop a great Experience🐸🤩🤩🤩

Michael Murray: Has just about everything you need to go fishing , nice guy, helpful, and pleasure to deal with.

Tim: A solid fishing tackle and bait shop surprisingly close to me. They have a much wider selection of saltwater tackle and lures, but they do offer a variety of essentials to keep a freshwater fisherman happy. I fish for panfish - mainly bluegill, crappie/calico bass and perch - with my 4yr old son and P & J Bait Shop doesn't disappoint with a wide assortment of floats, swivels, bait buckets and live bait. Everything is neat and organized, the quality of the worms they sell have never disappointed me and their live minnows are exceptional.Noticeably sparse, however, is their inventory of smaller offerings more suitable for panfish, such as small jigs, shad darts, twister tails and smaller freshwater lures. So maybe you're better off stocking up on those items at Bass Pro Shops or your nearby Walmart. Ditto if you're fishing for bass and looking for plugs, crankbaits, spinner baits, stick baits or Texas rigs.All in all, this is a great neighborhood place that once bailed me out a few months ago when I didn't have time to get to any of the larger establishments to stock up on supplies. Since then I've gotten to know the staff at P & J Bait Shop and I'm now a regular customer. They make me feel like they value my business.... and you can count on them not closing early when you need them the most!!! Prices are reasonable, too.This is an admittedly lengthy review but if you're still reading this then you owe it to yourself to give them a shot. I could easily have rated them an additional star (5/5) if for a better overall selection of artificial freshwater lures, but as a reliable source for general fishing needs this place nails it.

Jim robichau: Every bait shop within 20 miles is sold out of feathered sabikis.....P&J isn’t sold out of ANYTHING. The owner was friendly, knowledgeable, and funny.They were smart enough to load up before Covid destroyed the supply chain and really take care of customers......Go there!

Tom O'Connell: Best bait shop in Boston!

Randall J Henriquez: Worst customer service ever

Sean Wilson: Went in for the first time today and the young lady was very and I mean very knowledgeable... she hooked me up with everything I needed and the prices there can not be beat... I highly recommend this bait shop as it will be the only one I goto now

Angela Lou: I got set up with a new rod and all the basics today. Friendly, quick, and knowledgeable service. Cash only as of now.

David Alce: Awesome

Jared Hare: Very friendly and fair price

Hector “jesus” cartagena: This place is always closed, don't waste your time

love lourin: This is open and it wasn’t close most of the time from 10:00 am to 6:30 pm Monday to Saturday and Sunday 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm.

monica marshall: The owner is very good and helpful. The fish are very good. They also have fresh water bait like trout worms and night crawlers for a reasonable price. The store is due for a massive update per the owner soon. The store is open after 2 pm till 6:30 pm.

Lee: I finally got to visit here because it was every time I drove past it was hard to tell if they were even open for business. The owner said they are open and going to renovate the store soon. So no pets for sale.

Emmitt Perry: Great if you have a pet or you want bait for fishing

shanemma moody: This store is reasonable and have awesome bait like worms/ night crawlers.
