Pier fishing is a quick, great way to enjoy saltwater fishing and is an art all its own. This form of fishing is a natural saltwater fishing opportunity for anglers living or vacationing along the coast. The fishing is done from a floating or stationary platform that is built over the water and are typically 80 feet in length. Fishing off the pier is a way of life for many and is most commonly associated with the seacoasts. Pier fishing is always a good time even if the fish aren’t biting. Fishing can be productive anytime of day, however the consensus among diehard pier fishermen is that the rising tide is certainly the best, if you can pick and choose when you fish. It is recreational, fun, relaxing and offers the benefit of providing a food source.
