Thread: Does the pier

Does the pier give out anything for the first fish caught for the season like others do?....pier pass??

Not that I have heard of yet.would be nice if we could get something like that started.

The Pier doesn't give anything away except that awful version of music that comes out of those horrible sounding speakers at the pier house. Can't hear the surf for the noise.

LOL now thats something I can both agree with and find funny

With all of the money the pier makes in people paying to fish and all of the looky looky tourists sightseers, I doubt they would have enough funds to actually give away anything, lol! It is a shame that they do not though, being that I believe it is the nicest pier on the Gulf Coast.

And with that said I don't mind paying to fish or paying to look. If that keeps this wonderful place going then I am all for it. IMHO.

THIS! It IS the nicest pier on the Gulf.
It would be very nice to see them do prizes like that, but.
I would much rather see general maintenance issues kept up with in a prompt manner.
Water hoses, bathroom cleanliness, night fishing lights under the pier and more.

I agree with chille. It's been two years on the lights and two months on the water for the cleaning at the octi! The turtle lights are bad enough trying to tie a line after dark. I'm all for ecology to protect the turtles, but at least fix the ones that are there!

it is the nicest pier on the gulf cause of most of the people..... but fish the piers to the east some and youll think our water looks like the mississippi river at times.

Nothin' we can do about that---wish there was. Makes the good days better.
