Come for the bait.
Leave with the catch.

Your neighbors on
the water.

Atlantic Bug Bait sits on the edge of Machias in one of Maine's most productive fishing corridors. We stock what we actually use — fresh bait pulled from these waters, tackle that handles salt and fresh alike, and advice that comes from years of being out on the water every season.

Whether you're casting from the pier at low tide, heading out on a charter, or teaching your kid to hold a rod for the first time, we've got the gear and the know-how to help you make the most of it. Stop by and say hello — we'll point you in the right direction.
