I remember it too back in the day , it was a good pier. Looking at the start of it ( the new part ) , i'de say they probably will continue it again , not sure though if using the exisiting pylons or new concrete ones. I haven't seen under the new conctreted part at the start , is it concrete pylons or the old wood ones ?.rabah 01 wrote:cheers Rick. didnt really pay too much attention to the state of those pylons tbh.. but your right.. looks like they have had their run! was a fantastic pier to fish off back in the day.rixter wrote:I think that speaks for itself, those pylons don't look too good ! . And if the pylons are like that, I could only image that the top pier deck was worse :bolt: The Pylons 'maybe' re-usable again ?, reason they are still there maybe ? , or yet to be inspected or removed. Time will tell. Cheeres , Rickrabah 01 wrote:wow.. wonder why they did that to the end of the pier?
I also recon' that area nowerdays would be a good fishing area. Obviously mussels everywhere on the old pylons , probably try using mussels for bait too - as that is what the fish around there will be feeding from off the old pylons. At least on your bait there is no shell ( cracked bait ) , gotta be more tempting to a fish than trying to pick the mussel from a closed or half open shell ?? .
Cheers , gl , I might have to visit this area again soon myself.
