Hands-down the best bait shop in Titusville! Great service and always has the freshest bait in town. They open early too!
Took a last minute fishing trip on 8/21/21 from west Orlando and stopped at Captain Hooks because on my route and was open (was about 7pm). I always try to use local baitshops to support them and I find them to be very helpful since they know the area. My rule for pretty much any business is that if they treat me like Im bothering them by buying their bait and asking a few questions is that I will never use them again. CAPTAIN HOOKS is the type of shop that will absolutely get my return business. The variety of baits was tremendous and very alive/feisty despite it being late in the day. The setup for their tanks is amazing and is why the bait remain alive and full of vigor . Prices were reasonable. I wish I got his name, but the young fella working at that time could not have been more friendly and helpful. Since this was a hop in truck and just go type trip I hadnt done my typical research. No problem, this fella was more than happy to get out his phone and pinpoint some areas and suggested baits/lures. These are the things that keep me outta the chain stores and going to the locally owned bait shops. For an average fisherman like me, walking into a place like Captain Hooks reminds me of the way my Dad used to love going and hanging out with the fellas at the local barbershop for a while. Now I get why. So keep it up Captain Hooks!FYI, me and a buddy will be on your doorstep at 5am on September 11 to get our bait!I have not been asked to review Captain Hooks, dont own it and not getting anything out of this besides wanting to share my experience with other anglers (I rely on yours as well) and to support and recognize a great local bait shop in my opinion.
Unless you want baby shrimp that look more like crikets in size. Dont ever go there! Theyre overpriced and rude! Never going there again 👎
Large selection. The bait we got was reasonably priced.
Very good prices on tackle and any kind of bait imaginable! Austin was very helpful and imformative for this new to Fl fisherman.
Nice shop. Good prices
Only place I’ve found with shiners I drive 30 minutes for them and we’ll worth it 💯👌🏼 Great place and great service
The shrimp were in Really good shape. Prices were good and the service was great! I will be back.
Always very knowledgeable and friendly staff. They have a large selection of all your fishing needs.
Hands down the best bait shop on the Space Coast! I’ve been shopping this veteran friendly bait and tackle store for the last 5 years and I’ve always received great service with a friendly smile. I have purchased everything from live sand fleas, live mullet and hand made fishing rigs from Captain Hooks. Although, I had to buy the shrimp, I won the pictured filet knife I used to slice this nice drum with in one of their free giveaway events!
Great food . even better PRICE AND SERVICE
Love going here with thr family always have what we need at fair prices
The guy a meet there was informative and genuine
Excellent service. Gave us expert advice for surf fishing. Highly recommend
The gentleman there was very nice but the prices not so much....I bought very few items and the total came to around 38 bucks...I puckered a little bit...and paid...you get me once shame on you get me twice...I think not....unfortunately walmart here I come....
I love this place very knowledgeable
Only baitshop ill go to in the area. Staff is always friendly and usually has what im lookin for. Highly recommended
Must be the friendliest owners of a bait shop existent in the world! Not sure whats wrong with these guys, lol! Definitely coming back!
The prices at Captain Hooks are probably the best in the area, the staff are always supportive and they know the shop for what you need.Ive even butt-dialed them on my phone and theyve called me back within 10 minutes.There are more than happy to answer the phone and give you an update on what bait is available.Suggest calling ahead, because you might want to bring your cast net if they dont have live mullet.
Very helpful and informative nice people
Always great service.
My favorite bait shop in Titusville, hands down. The owner and his wife are super friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and current fishing conditions as well as whats biting. They always have reasonable rates on bait. They stock everything you need. So if youre fishing the Titusville, Merritt Island or Canaveral National Seashore this is the spot for all your fishing needs! I highly recommend this spot! Great service!
Good prices, excellent bait.
Real down tho earth folks trying to help you catch em all
By far the best shop on the block
My favorite bait shop in the area. The employees are super knowledgeable and helpful with a lot of great tips. They have every type of bait that you could want and the prices are much better than most of their competitors. They also have a pretty good selection of fishing rods/reels and will help you to find the best combo for the fish your targeting. Highly recommend this little gem!
Great place. Owner was so friendly. Only bait shop Ill go to now
Family guy,great prices
Two or three bait stores in this area but this place is my favorite. Extremely friendly and goes out of there way to explain the different types of lures and bait options. Great place and I will always come here when fishing the east coast.
Awesome bait store great people
I would say this is the best bait shop in the area. Great prices on bait and service 👍🏽
Very helpful and great customer service
First time florida pier fishing and the captain really helped provide knowledge i needed. Great customer service
Great! They have live bait, and are friendly and professional
This is my spot when I come to the Cape for some fishing. They have the expertise, knowledge and of course bait. Now, I’ve been coming here off and on for the past two years. This is “Thee” place for bait as they have a wide selection of what you need to catch the “BIG” one! If, your in the area. Please stop by and get what you need, cause they have it.
Captain Hooks and Luis absolutely saved the day and what could have been a bait-less fishing trip! Super accommodating and knowledgeable. Thank you for being so friendly and helpful!
Hands down the Best Bait and Tackle store in the area. Great selection of live baits at an affordable price. The staff is really friendly and always willing to help you with whatever you need for a good fishing experience. You also can’t beat the Shrimp Special 👍 Thanks Captain Hook🎣

Best Shop in Town! Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Everything you need for a day on the water. Fully stocked with a variety of bait and gear it is my go-to place for bait and tackle!
Best bait shop in the state! I have made the mistake of trying other shops out, only to be disappointed. Either they overcharge or they never have live bait available. I built a livewell for my trips to St.Pete and stop by for bait before driving over. I will never make that mistake again. Im loyal until death, or I move out of state.
We always stop here even when were fishing in the southern part of the county because Captain Hooks has the widest variety of live baits of any bait shop weve visited in Brevard County. The gents who run this place are always friendly and knowledgeable. They also wont try to oversell you on any particular type of live bait.
Alan was very quick to greet us as we entered and promptly assisted us in finding a new pole and different options of bait! We will definitely be back!
Best place to buy bait, staff is friendly, knowledgeable and they have a big selection of artificials
