Highly recommend. These guys were awesome. They will have everything you need regardless of what you are looking for. Bait, gear, tackle, or a brand new setup.They listen to their customers and they won’t try to oversell to you like some places try to do. πŸ‘ŒπŸΌThey even set it all up for me so that I’d be good to go straight out the door. πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌGood guys, Great Shop, Would Definitely Recommend You Stop Here First.They’ll Hook You Up!🎣🐠🐟🎣

Just moved here and know very little about salt water fishing. The owners are by far the nicest, most helpful and genuine people I’ve met since I’ve moved here. They set me up with everything I needed, gave me a couple spots to fish and made my fishing experience a million times better. They had everything I need and even showed me how to rig it all up. They didn’t try to over sell me on anything. This is the only bait shop I will go to now 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone wanting anything to do with fishing.

We’ve been to all the bait shops in this area, and E&J is among the very best: owned by the kindest and most professional/knowledgeable couple, they have an amazing selection of live bait, tackle, and gear. And their prices can’t be beat. Thanks for taking such great care of us!

Eli & Jai are amazing!!! While on our honeymoon they helped me and my husband find a new rod & reel (even re-lined it for me) and picked out some bait. The couple are so friendly you’d think you’ve been friends forever. Will definitely tell friends, family, and anyone who’d listen to go to E & J Bait and Tackle! 🎣🐠🐟❀️

Review β„–42

My husbands new favorite bait shop, the gentleman who owns the place (Eli) is very informative about local fish and bait, he also stocks different lures for any fish youre trying to catch. Plus they stay open late on Friday for your night fishing needs. My husband said he wont be getting his bait anywhere else.

E&J is the place to go if you want to feel β€œat home” when prepping to fish. They are both wonderful personable people that are very knowledgeable! I won’t go to another bait shop! They have made me feel like family from the beginning. Best people best prices hands down. Take it from a 40 year greater Daytona Beach are resident. Try it once and you’ll be β€œhooked” for sure! -Scott Wilson

Hello..I am very new to this sport and I love it!!! I have been to several bait shops in town and I never thought about how your supposed to be treated..Lets face it we shopping for dead or live bait... But being a Business Owner myself and and being so intrigued in the sport and spending countless amounts on money at establishments locally in Volusia County and I was told about E&J Bait Shop...my new Friends Bret and his wife made it a point to take me to this Establishment..And we were greeted with such politeness and knowledge and good spots to gi fishingπŸ€—.... and the store was impeccably clean I mean you could eat off the floors...IT DID NOT SMELL LIKE A BAIT STOREπŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”...ALL Merchandise was very well displayed and lit...and lets not forget the Shrimp my lord I have never seen such Monsters All I thinking was that i could probably take them home and cook themπŸ˜‚πŸ€£ ...again there tackle is half of what other Bait stores sell there product and they dont compare to E&J... they made me feel right at home even went as far to come by and check on me while I was Fishing...thats Customer Service with 5 STARS....YOU HAVE GAINED A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE AND A FRIEND..I STRONGLY RECOMMEND E&J FOR ALL YOUR FISHING NEEDS AND TO MEET YWO GREAT PEOPLE...THANK FOR THE EXPERIENCE...R.MALDONADO/ All Star Entertainment/DJ Ricky
