Terrible customer service and communication! Purchased a Shimano Stradic 4000 FJ and was sent a Stradic 4000 XG. Reel was returned the same day and had to get Amazon to step in to get my refund. The replacement reel was never sent. A label was printed for my replacement reel but never shipped. Total scam! Buyer Beware! read more

Ordered a Shimano Saragosa reel from Canal Bait and Tackle through Amazon and it did not work properly. Returned item within return window for refund via UPS (had to pay as they did not give free return shipping). UPS tracking shows it was received at the front desk but I have heard nothing from the company. Contacted Amazon customer service twice now and both times they sent CB&T a message, again no response. 10 days out since last message was sent with no response yet. Still waiting for my refund which is no small amount. Poor customer service with no communication. read more

The guy behind the counter is a complete jerk. Literally would never waste my time again. After leaving his shop (and leaving several hundred dollars of stuff I was going to purchase), I went to another bait shop a few miles away. That owner told me he no longer refers any customers to Canal Bait and Tackle because the guy behind the counter is so rude. read more

The best for personal service and variety for all of your local needs. Also great stories and tales from the canal. Bruce, Jeff and Sheila, can't do any better on The Cape. read more

Great little local business. Gentlemen there were very helpful. I would highly recommend for your basic fishing needs.

Canal bait and tackle is a great spot to fill and restock your tackle. Jeff behind the counter is very knowledgeable and helpful. This shop has more verity than any other other shop on or off cape. So take my advice and get to canal bait and tackle you'll be glad you did. read more

The worst fishing tackle company I've ever dealt with. Purchased a jigging lure from them. Waited almost a week to get it and it arrived scratched up. So I requested a replacement. Within hours USPS picked up the scratched up lure I sent back to them these people cancelled my replacement! And due to "technical issues??" They have them all over Ebay and 40 in stock on their website. Very bitter company that will retaliate against you if you don't accept their defective scratched up lures they ship to you. Pathetic! read more

Ordered a Trinidad 30A reel for an anniversary present. Price was great. Delivered in a timely manner. Packaged neatly and safely. We live in California, but if we were nearby would definitely want to check out the store and their offerings! read more

Recently had a couple of Penn reels cleaned & tuned up, bought some new line for each, and a new lure to use at the canal. Very affordable, very helpful and informative staff, and convenient location. Worth the drive from Yarmouth, just make sure you are aware of the traffic patterns. read more

I'm only giving 2 stars because they do have great fishing products in store. The main problem with this store is the price. Everything is way too expensive and you won't find a single thing sold at market prices. The other problem I found here was the live bait. Everything was frozen, nothing fresh and way too expensive. The bags they sell are 6 bucks and everything is frozen. I purchased 2 fresh mackerel for 3 bucks in other stores while here I would have to pay the double for worthless frozen bait. Clams come in very small quantities, they are frozen and again 6 dollars. read more

Been doing business online and at store for two years now, Jeff has everything I need for surfcasting and boat fishing Cape Cod and beyond, online buying is ridiculously fast and lots of free shipping in the U.S. read more

I ordered a custom rod at the end of September 2010. It arrived in late October and was exactly what I expected. I was able to catch a few nice sized striped bass with it at the end of the fall run. This is a family business and the staff is great. Good selection of lures that seems to be expanding each month. Hours are the best around opening sometimes at 4am during the fishing season so if you need bait or gear before a trip they will likely be open. Parking is pretty good and there's enough room to turn a boat around. Prices are mediocre but convenience trumps that. read more

Best Bait shop on the Cape! I'm only on Cape for the summer and I wish there was a place like this down in SC. They care about their customers and take the time to explain their products. They know the best spots and times on the canal to fish and the best lures to use. Great people to shoot the shit with. read more
