These boys have a full line of tackle and bait for all your fishing needs. Surf, Boat, Pond, River, and Pier they have it all. They carry a wide variety of locally made tackle with a large DS Custom Tackle display.
A very knowledgeable staff about the surrounding area waters and much more. They have been in the “game” for a while.
If the store is closed, look for a sign. They will either be back in 5 minutes or went fishing for the day. “Let’s go see if these bloodworms are really working” has been heard more than once in the late afternoon on a slow weekday.
One of my favorite shops to just drop by and hang out.
There is also a gas station right next door.
Dan’s Tackle Box does not have Delaware state recreational fishing licenses available in the shop. Get that online at Delaware Recreational Fishing License. Anglers may keep a copy (picture) of the Delaware Recreational Fishing License on their smart phones.
No Tournament Weight Station for citations and state records on site.
