My original post was to long for google or they believe you can’t concentrate long enough to finish my post. HighlightsHook House great .Fishermen know that these local shops have all the knowledge you’ve not getting that at Walmart.On my third time fishing on route 37 bridge I was given a escort from bridge from Seaside finest . Officer told me that in seaside there is no fishing off bridge I apologize stating I looked on my two previous occasions for restrictions and found none posted I was packing up explaining that my other times I was not bothered. The officer said he had no problem with it but they had an enormous call then pointed to a no standing or stopping sign at base of bridge were shoulder began . Not calling him a lire but I believe that that is a motor vehicle restriction but what does an old fisherman know? How about this townships everywhere now close their parks and restrict parking close boat ramps . When you give up liberty’s to feel safe your not free. With the hours I work I can only fish nights why would closing public lands make your township safe? What you are stopping a group of kids from fishing and drinking beer. How is that working for you I can’t believe the thinking. Foot note I have utmost respect for police but as they want correctly answered questions I deserve the same by stating that he was answering an enormous call ? I was creating a distraction.He knew of no public land in seaside that I could fish to his knowledge and I could be trespassing . Just an old man fishing not a terrorist

Picked up some bait today and a few extra lures. The staff recommended another type of top water lure I never saw. Im grateful for that type of service! Fully stocked store and knowledgeable staff. 5 star all the way!

Wow, what a place ! These guys are top-notch. They have great prices but their knowledge is even better. I moved to Toms River area and was blessed with being so close to the water, amd with the ability to fish and crab. Today my little guy and I went crabbing and pulled in about 3 dozen nice 5inch male blue claws. Go here if its fishing related, bait, or need advice they have it All !!!

Great bait shop . Very friendly.and They will get you set up right for any time of year . Very good place.

Good service, but the place smells so bad like rotten fish I almost threw up, and was gagging for an hour after leaving. I was wearing a mask too but hardly helped. None of the three guys working there were wearing masks, and I have no idea how they were able to stand it being in there for hours. I felt bad for the two dogs they had there. Just crazy how bad it smelled. Ive never smelled anything so bad in my life.

So helpful every time.. have a few laughs and they have everything needed for your trip out. Cool place for sure

Seems to be willing to share local knowledge, priced slightly high, good selection, comes off a tad rude at first but hes not at all. Helpful shop thats open late!

If youre on your way out to ibsp or seaside to fish, hook house should be your first place to get the essentials and you get the scoop on whats running and all the information you need to get on the fish.
