fishing piers

Waterside casting structures

Fishing piers are structures extending from shore into a body of water, built to give anglers access to deeper water without a boat.

They're typically wooden or concrete platforms with railings, found along coastlines, lakes, and rivers.

Many are public and free to use; others charge a small fee.

We spent the morning on the fishing pier, catching bluefish.
