Surfland Bait & Tackle

The place is a little pricy but you’re paying for knowledge. I purchased a reel there and it was a little more than the big box stores but I also learned a little about lure fishing from the young guy that works there. Happy with my purchase and I would shop there more often if it closer to me.

I went to buy some bait and other stuff I have been waiting for at least 5 minutes at the counter and I am the only customer at that time, the lady in the store was looking at me while she was on the phone talking with a friend, she did not care much about me as a customer ready to order.
Very bad customer service plus they are very expensive. You rather go and check online or somwhere else before buying from theme.
the only thing you can buy from there is the bait it is always fresh and not pricy other than that do your math and you will be savinng a lot of money.
Thank you for reading

Great shop to get your baits for surf cast. Just a little expensive. Overall recommended

Great tackle shop. The staff is always helpful and even willing to open early /​stay later if you if you have special requests. They always have the bait I need. Also, their reel repair is great.
I always go to Surfland Bait and Tackle when I’m fishing Plum Island

This is the best tackle shop for dozens of miles around. They have pretty much anything you need for surfcasting. The staff is just great. I mean GREAT. Helpful and pleasant. They’ll really bend over backwards for you.
Fresh bait, custom rods, will spool your line right there at the counter. Good reel repairs, live eels, and for a hang-​out, just visit any weekend morning before 9 to meet the real old-​time fishermen from the area that sit around with coffee and chat.

Went to Surfland last summer with my boyfriend and his parents on our way back from a charter trip and the people working there were very friendly and welcoming even though we were not locals. It was fun to see the banter between the regular customers and the employees. You could tell that everyone working there really knew what they were talking about when it comes to the best bait to be using and where the best places to fish are. The bait was all really fresh and didnt stink to high heaven like some other places. I am not a master «fisherlady» but I do know the basics from fishing with my dad. I can tell when you have crap bait. They also have sweatshirts for sale that might be on the pricey side but my boyfriend got one and its super comfortable and really good quality. I guess it’s true you get what you pay for. They also have pictures all over the store of people with their big catches, its cool to look at all the pictures from the 80’s. There is also a cat that wanders around the store, she was really sweet and let me pet her while she was taking a little rest in the sun. I am going back to Plum Island for a week this summer and I look forward to going back to Surfland and getting my own sweatshirt and seeing the new stuff they have!
