About this shop

Cedar Key Bait & Tackle LLC is a popular off-island shop located on Highway 24 in the Rosewood community, just outside of Cedar Key, Florida. Run by knowledgeable local fishermen, the shop has earned a stellar reputation among anglers for its exceptional customer service, expert local advice, and reliable inventory. It features a robust selection of terminal tackle, lures, and premium gear brands like Bull Bay Rods and Bajío sunglasses, and even hosts an onsite food truck serving highly rated burgers during peak daytime hours. The shop is particularly vital to the area for its diverse bait selection, especially when options are scarce elsewhere. Anglers can stock up on fresh-caught mullet alongside high-quality frozen offshore baits like squid, mackerel, and thread herring. For those preferred live options, they consistently supply live shrimp, pinfish, mud minnows, and fiddler crabs, making it a dependable, go-to stop on the way to the water.
