About this shop

ooked Up Live Baits is St. Petersburg's unique, on-the-water floating bait barge, ideally positioned just outside O'Neill's Marina and the Maximo Park Boat Ramp. This strategic location near the Skyway Bridge allows boaters to pull their vessels right up to the shop for fast, convenient service before heading out into Tampa Bay or the Gulf of Mexico. In addition to drive-up service, they provide dockside live-well deliveries and commercial bulk tank orders tailored for charter captains and local private docks.

The shop specializes in premium, seasonal live selections that are often difficult to find at traditional land-based bait stores. Anglers can stock up on essential local live baits including whitebait (pilchards and greenbacks), pinfish, blue runners, ladyfish, and specialized tarpon or permit pass crabs.
