We're excited to announce that Hot Spots Bait & Tackle will be opening on 2/21/09! We will be located at 211 Gulf Breeze Parkway in the shopping center with Blockbuster, Subway, Bere Jewelers, and Baskin Robins. Our goal is to provide for everyone from the professional angler to a kid on his first fishing trip. We will have a free weekly fishing contest with prizes for kids and adults, in addition to our yearly free fishing tournament!
 
We would like to offer a discount to everyone in the "Pensacola Fishing Forum Community". You can simply tell us your a member of the forum when you come in or you can private message Chris Phillips or myself and we will send you a discount card in the mail.
 
I'm excited and really looking forward to becoming more involved with the local fishing community and meeting more forum members.

I would like to add that we have brought in a top notch live well system and plan to provide you with a number of live baits of which are not normally available for purchase in our area, this includes live croakers!

We will have gear and equipment available for both inshore and offshore angler. Although while spending time fishing inshore traveling tournaments over the last few years Matt and I have learned countless tips, tricks, and lures that we would like to pass onto the local community.

Our store phone number will be (850) 916-7176, but if you have questions or comments right now I can be reached at (850) 255-7288.

Yes, there will still be a Hot Spots Fishing Charters, but we're only planning to run trips with clients who've been fishing with us for years. We will pass the other trips onto the other guides in the community. It's hard to be in two places at one time and we feel we can provide more by being in the store! Nothing will be changing at the PNJ, I will continue to do the Hook, Line, & Sinker.

Thanks so much for the kind words and the interest everybody!

Chicken,

The croakers are coming from out of town. Live bait is very important to us and along with providing great service it will be a big priority. We plan to open with and consistantly carry shrimp, bull minnows, croakers, pinfish and even pigfish when available. We have designed a series of tanks to specifically hold these fish baits. We will also carry the items needed for customers to transport these baits.

Congrats on your new venture guys!

I like the idea of mixing some live bait with my ice cream when I'm heading to the beach!

We are carrying a large variety of top name rods and reels for both offshore and inshore fishing including Shimano, Penn and several others. We are also carrying many items that are not available in our area. Two rod lines and several other items we are VERY excited to introduce to this area. As Chris mentioned we have traveled from Texas to Key West to South Carolina fishing tournaments, and we have been in tackle stores at all of these locations. We have had the opportunity to see many different products, styles of fishing ect... We will use those experiences to make our service as helpful, friendly and cutting edge as possible!

Congrats and best of luck you two.  I hope you'll have a secret stash of natural lite somewhere in the back for those of us who plan on just using the bathroom and shoplifting :-)

Best of luck guys...I want a tour of the baitwells!  Sounds cool.

Way to go guys...it'll be great to have consistent (dependable) source of live bait and don't forget the fleas during the pomp run this spring...

Dang, now I'll have to make that cross over turn pulling my boat from the east....you may have to have GB install a traffic light to handle all the traffic.

Good luck guys and see you soon!

I forgot to mention the fleas! We will have them. One of the reasons we picked this location is because of parking and boat trailering convenience. There is a large parking lot, you can circle all the way around the building with a trailer if you need to, and you can enter and exit at the light on Gulf Breeze parkway. Come by and check us out, we would love the chance to earn your business!
