Hayward Bait & Bottle Shop

Great selection and service in both fishing and liquor department. Found everything we needed to complete our trip!

We are fortunate to have such a business in Hayward. The store is well supplied and the bait is fresh. Staff is kind, friendly and helpful. John is extremely knowledgeable on archery. He recently replaced my crossbow string and was able to determine what had gone wrong. His customer service was excellent. Price for repair was very reasonable. Thanks again!

All I can say is what a awesome place. People were great!! And the inventory was unbelievable had everything I needed and more.

I do not fish and my husband does which is not in town. I had him on FaceTime so that he can pick what he wants for Father's Day. I explained this to a gentleman working there and he understood. However a woman working there loudly and rudely asked me if she can help me find something as she saw me with my phone. Before I can answer the gentleman explained to her what I was doing. She then walked away. I spent over $100 and would have spent more but when husband heard here he said that's enough.

What a great and honest place. Guy had a chance to upsell me and didn't. I'm new to this and his honesty was greatly appreciated in a world where they want your every penny. Huge selection of live and other bait. Amazing place.

I bought a new Mathews VXR 28 from John and have to say it was a great experience! John got the bow all set up and I am ready to go. If you are a fisherman it looks like they have everything you will ever need and more plus, liquor! Great place.

We've been coming here for the past 12 years on our way to Sunrise Bay campground. We always stop on the way through to pick up all our bait, cocktail supplies and anything else that pertains to fishing needs. All employees are always a pleasure, answer any questions, give us updates on whats biting and what bait to use. Fully stocked fishing gear and so many things to choose from. They carry every fishing need anyone could ever want.

They were so friendly in helping this Arkansas bass boy to try and land a walleye. They were not merely trying to “make a sell.” But, they genuinely wanted to help me be successful. You don’t find that type of customer service just anywhere. If you want a place to set you up with ANY type of fishing gear. Or, if you need advice and direction on the local lakes or rivers, then this is the place. Northern hospitality at its finest.

If you're looking for sporting goods fishing supplies or fishing bait this is the place to hit! They pretty much have everything you need and if they don't I'm sure they can order it. 😂

Awesome!!! One stop shop. They have what you need for fishing in the Hayward area and plus the have beverages for a day on the lake and cabin.

Great customer service, Stopped in for bait and asked about area grouse hunting. One of the employees spent considerable time directing me to some logging roads in the national forest east of Hayward. Info was spot on.

It was an awesome store. Huge selection of tackle, so many of everything as well as friendly staff.

Ken was awesome! He helped me with my Helix 9.
Great service!

Great place for bait and all your fishing needs complete with a liquor store for a good or bad day fishing.

Bought a crossbow and they took the time to teach me the basics about a crossbow and let me shoot it a few times.
Great service and great staff.
