Laine’s Baits is a family owned business that has been around since the 1950’s. The family tradition of selling bait was originally started by, father and son, Willis and Willis Jr. The bait shop was run out of the old barn located behind the Tilden-Laine Victorian at 970 Elizabeth Street in Alviso California. Willis’ son, Thomas Laine and his wife, Beverly Laine, later opened their own bait shop
