North west you have R.Welsh
Scotland's shooting and fishing experts |

Or try Hardy at Alnwick who I think sells bait

Hardy Fishing (UK) | Fly Fishing | Coarse Fishing

Failing these Amble angling at Amble believe it or not does sell bait.
ambleanglingcentre.org.uk


I always thought Seahouses might have a tackle shop as it seems to be a good location for one but don't think there is one.

Good luck

I don't think Hardy's sells bait. It's not their style.

They were a few years back when I was staying at Seahouses. Worth a phone call.

I'll give them a call, I can't believe that I have to drive for 40 minutes from Bamburgh.

I suppose I co uld try and dig for my own worms but don't have a clue on how to do it, I've seen loads of casts on the beach but no idea how far down to dig etc.

Any advice gents?

Hello,
I was in the gift shop the other day and I'm not sure that they have much left of anything and are pretty near to closing down by the looks of it. Half the shop is cordoned off and I'm not sure if I noticed if the bait fridge/freezer is still there.
The Pet shop just across the road has started to sell fishing bait but I don't know if it's the preserved rubbish or frozen.

Your best bet is to go to Amble Angling centre for fresh bait or go to the tackle shop at Berwick thet sells frozen Ammo stuff. If you are realy stuck then go to Swallow fisheries in Seahouses and have a look, they will have makerel and squid.

I have a caravan up at Seahouses and take all my bait up with me when I go.

Good luck, Ian.

Went to Amble and got some Rag, then went to the pet shop in Seahouses and picked up some mackeral, seandeels and some black lug.


So anyone looking for bait in Seahouses, the pet shop does most frozen stuff.


Thanks for all the advice gents.

Hi all, I'm heading up North in a few weeks and want to check if anything has changed in the last year regarding bait shops near Seahouses or Bamburgh.

Never dug my own bait so not really an option effort me

Thanks mate, according to Maps it's faster to get there than going to Amble.
