fishing pier
Waterside casting spot
A fishing pier is a structure extending from shore into a body of water, built specifically for recreational or commercial fishing.
Unlike general piers used for docking boats or strolling, fishing piers are designed to give anglers access to deeper water: We spent the morning on the fishing pier, hoping for flounder.
Many charge admission and offer bait, tackle, and rod rentals.
