Gotcha Bait & Tackle

Found our new bait shop! The guys here were so helpful and friendly. There are also 2 cats living here, the younger cat Toodles, is really sweet! He loved getting his belly rubbed by me and my 4 year old lol
Picked up a ¼ lb of grass shrimp and a container of night crawlers, going to take our daughters fishing. Only cost us around $ 10.00
Cool business. They give lots of great tips and advice you can always call for tide info too. Here’s their phone number (925)706−7400
Great hours, they are open til 7:00pm.

Gotcha bait & tackle always got your bait & tackle and the guys that work there are cool too but stay jawsin

Come on guys where’s more grass shrimp. !! Most of the time try get limited grass shrimp. They couldn’t reserve it for you. You need to be there as early as possible to get te goods. Friendly service. That’s for sure. I would give 5 stars if there’s more grass shrimps

They have so many different kinds of bait here its crazy! And they know what fish are biting on what types of bait, over others. The place is easy to find, plenty of parking & have some other fishing accessories you might have to buy last minute!

Very helpful! I had never been Bass fishing before and they answered all the questions I was throwing at them. Questions, I’m sure, they answer time and time again every day. Friendly staff. It’s apparent they all love their job. That, or they’re on some really good antidepressants. Lol!

AS HAPPY AS A CAT IN A FISHING STORE
A couple of cool cats work here. Not to be confused with the two cats that live here. Meow! I had a fish once. It lasted a few weeks in my cat house. I should have known better. I bet these cats are well-​fed!
We stopped in and were surprised at how empty the store was. Thought there’d be a lot more product to browse. The employees were helpful though and we talked a little bit about crabbing. The only purchase I made was for two packs of sunflower seeds. This is going to sound odd but they were the best sunflower seeds we’d ever had. Nothing fancy, just Frito-​Lays brand with Ranch and Flamas flavors. But they were the absolute best.
Great little bait store with friendly service and loveable cats!

been going here off &on almost 47 yrs. one of the best.

By far the best bait shop in the area. It was literally night and day compared to BS Bait Tackle in Bay Point. Great customer service, no ego, everyone there was friendly. Highly recommend this place!!!

the guys are kewl here, real down to earth. the other bait shops, a little snotty, dont know why, maybe they have something against chocolate labs… j/​k. enough space to pull your boat in or park it on the street…

Love a bait shop that I don’t feel uncomfortable in when I enter and ask what’s biting on what.
Five stars for the huge «order» of Grass Shrimp although the Shad seemed to have the desired affect on the Stripers.
Thanks for always giving us decent fishing advice.

Bait & Tackle, Tackle & Bait, a couple bags of chips and 2 guys that know there stuff. That’s Gotcha.
oh man, should I say they have great portions! lol! We ordered pile worms and grass shrimp and received a grip!

This is going to be a joint Unilocal because I started to write this review in front of my honey, who then decided he wanted in on the Unilocal game…“hey get yer own Unilocal fella!”
«It’s cool baby, I will share my Unilocal with you. This time…»
So, we buy these fishing licenses the other day (circa ³⁄₂₀₀₈ KMart Unilocal) and find ourselves in need of bait and bait «like» products.
From my past experiences, being the daughter of a commercial fisherman and the sister of a boat captain and all (cuz I am fancy like that) I know that I just want plain old run of the mill every day night crawlers. Growing up on boats kinds of put a bad smell in my nose if you will for anchovies and I refuse to use them (or eat what I catch) but that is my hang up.
We get two tubs of large night crawlers, cuz that’s how we roll, and head to the pier.
After bragging to my kids and husband *again* how fabulous I am at baiting the hooks (call me the MASTERBAITER please) aaaand fishing … I choke.
Not only does J catch 7 fish, D catches 3 and my honey catches 4 — I dint get any love until its almost time to leave!
I will add that the ONE fish I was able to snag was the biggest tho’ (ha ha ha) no pictures to prove it. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera :-)
Gotcha! Bait and Tackle has nothing to offer except for plentiful amounts of various bait and a partially stocked metal rack of chips — no beverages or jerky. I’d have done better with beer and strips of beef.
Oh, and the guy that works their was helpful and polite and didn’t embarrass me when I asked for worms that don’t bite. Extra star for that!
