Five years ago today on July 28 , 2017 Captain Jax Bait and Tackle opened its doors. With only a small amount of items on hand but a large amount of dedication and passion for fishing, we managed to grow our shop.

So that I did. Little did I know the impact this would have on my family. For two years I was working 7 days a week, 14+ hours a day and sometimes pulling all nighters to catch bait.

Thanks to a strong community of bait shops we had support. Thanks to I learned how to fill up the store and what I should be filling it with. A lot of other bait stores helped us out when we had questions, , “Arcky’s and .With all that said, the number one reason we made it is because of our customers!!!!! Even tho we didn’t have a lot of tackle on our shelves they keeps coming back to support us!!!!! Ya‘ll are the real ones 💪💪💪 we love y’all
