CLOSED FOR THE SEASON

It's been a great year, but it's time to close for the season.

We will return on Saturday, May 1st, 2010. See you then.

Many thanks to all our wonderful customers and especially to our
magnificent employees!

Tackle Tips

Useful things to have on the Pier when fishing are a 5-gallon bucket,
a sharp knife, a rag, a pair of needle-nose pliers, a few gallon-size
plastic bags and some sunscreen.

Fishing rods longer than 6 feet are not useful and anybody can catch
fish with a hand line (string tied to a bottom rig) if you don't have
a rod or don't want to rent one.

For most fish you will catch, a number 4 hook and a two-ounce pyramid
sinker are all you'll need. Avoid big hooks and big pieces of bait --
you'll only wind up feeding the crabs.

Fishing Tips

The best fishing occurs while the water is moving; incoming tide is
better tha outgoing tide. To get the most help from the tide, start
fishing about an hour after the tide change. Right at low and high
tide, catching is always slow.
