Scott’s Bait & Tackle

Specialties

We are a family owned bait & tackle shop specializing in Penn Fishing Reel parts.

History

Established in 1985.

A personal minnowing business that gradually expanded into a little tackle shop on the side of the old Texaco, which then grew even further when we moved across the street to our current location a few years later. We survived Hurricane Sandy and are still going strong!

Meet the Business Owner

Scott A.

Business Owner

Scott started out when he was 14, catching minnows for some of the local businesses. After a time, he added some poles and rigs to his inventory, starting out in his parents garage, then eventually moving to the shed next to Marino’s Texaco, in his hometown of Mystic Islands NJ. He attended college, primarily computer courses, at the Richard Stockton College of NJ, operating the business primarily in the mornings before school and on the weekends.
