Vero Beach Real Estate Voice: "Wabasso Tackle Shop" Wabasso Florida

"Wabasso Tackle Shop" Wabasso Florida

 

                                             "Wabasso Tackle Shop" Wabasso Florida

The Wabasso Tackle Shop sits on the corner of US1 and Route 510.  It is a symbol of days gone by.  The day I stopped to take this picture the parking lot was empty but most days it is full of fisherman purchasing what they need for a day of fishing.  You pass this shop on your way to the spectacular Wabasso Bridge over to Orchid Island and then on to the Sebastian Inlet.  You always see people fishing along Route 510 and under the bridges.  Enjoy a look at Old Florida.  This will not be around for much longer.

Hi Barbara,
Don't you just hate to see the old businesses go?  So many on the Island I grew up on have been replaced with bigger and better...it's sad.

Wow Barbara, does this bring back memories.  My husband spent allot of time there when he was a teenager and took me there many times before we were married.  Funny how time flies, and your post brought back a great deal of  fond memories.  Thanks.

Hi Denise,

Your welcome!!  Does your husband fish??  It is just a great old building and I enjoy seeing it, I always take a good long look as I pass it.  Thank you for stopping by to comment.

Hi Nathan,

Thank you.  I see that you are into waterfront homes with docks.   We have an endless variety of places with private docks and community docks here.  We have the Intracoastal and the Indian River Lagoon with coves and canals, it is pretty impressive.  Thank you for stopping by to comment, I appreciate it.

Barbara- Traveling A-1-A is always a good drive and there are sights of yester year. Like your bait shop.
Posted by Mark Horan "The Resident Chef" (Resident Team Realty, LLC) about 4 years ago

 

Hi Mark,

I love the drive throught all the small beach communities.  You can always find a one-of-a-kind snack shop/restaurant, mingle with the locals and just enjoy the scenery.  Thank you for stopping by to comment.

Barbara - that is indeed a symbol of days gone by! It reminds me of the Florida I grew up in!!!!
Posted by Bill's Blog - Florida Realty Professional - AHWD (Charles Rutenberg Realty) about 4 years ago

 

Hi Charles,

The fishing is great down here!!!  So many choices, so little time :-).  I see a lot of Virginia license plates down here, I will have to start inquiring what area they come from.   Maybe we could do some business!
Thank you for stopping by to comment.

Hi Barbara Jo & Bill,

Up in Sebastian they have some great and colorful places!!   Restaurants and shops, etc.  It still resembles a fishing village.  Have you been up to Sebastian??  Thank you for stopping by to comment.

Hi Barbara, thanks for thinking about us.  Yes, he used to fish, but...........well, I guess keeping up with this market has cost everyone a great deal.  You have reminded me that we must still stop and do the things we love.  Maybe I'll schedule a fishing trip to Wabasso.  Thanks.

Hi Barbara:

I saw that tackle shop when I was in Sebastian at the end of Feb 2010. Are they tearing it down?

Why?  The building really has a lot of character.

Is is historic? Maybe it could be preserved?
