Wholesale Bait Company, Inc. is a U.S.-based supplier of live bait and related products for the fishing industry. Its website supports both online store purchases and phone orders. Founded in 1955, the company has been family-run for more than 60 years and emphasizes its long-standing service to customers in the bait and fishing sectors.
Its core offering is not a general e-commerce marketplace, but a vertically focused supply online store. Its product selection covers live bait such as Premium Wax Worms, Giant Mealworms, Mealworms, nightcrawlers, red worms, and crickets, as well as supporting supplies including cold packs, foam buckets, plastic bags, bait packaging containers, water treatment products, air pumps, and live wells. For tackle shops or bait retailers, it has a clear one-stop restocking value. Product pages provide specifications, storage temperatures, and bulk packaging details—for example, wax worms are sold in lots of 250, while mealworms are sold in lots of 1,000.
The website uses a unit price plus volume-tier pricing model: the more you buy, the lower the per-lot price. For example, Premium-Quality Wax Worms can drop from $14.95/lot to $10.00/lot, while Mealworms can drop from $17.99/lot to $11.75/lot. Note that all credit card transactions incur a 3% convenience fee on the total transaction amount. If shipping requires additional freight charges or refrigerated containers, costs may also change, so the final landed cost needs to be confirmed when ordering or by inquiry.
Shipping is handled through carriers such as FedEx, UPS, and USPS. However, the website clearly states that because carriers cannot guarantee transit times, no shipped orders are currently guaranteed to arrive alive. This is a critical risk for live bait procurement, especially in cases of high or low temperatures, or peak-season delays. Buyers need to assess potential losses themselves.
The advantages are its long operating history, vertical product focus, clear wholesale specifications, and availability of phone and email consultation. The drawbacks are weak fulfillment guarantees, added costs from credit card surcharges, and insufficient information on international shipping, returns/exchanges, and additional payment methods. It is better suited to U.S.-based tackle shops, bait retailers, and fishing-related businesses that need bulk restocking. It is less suitable for Chinese e-commerce sellers who rely on stable cross-border fulfillment.
