The pier is almost always full and you have no chance at all getting a line in at the end of the pier.rb85 wrote:Nothing like your personal space being invaded by the local regulars know a few piers where this is a common occurrence.

Seemed to me that the reason they weren't catching any probably had less to do with the spot on the pier they were fishing in and more to do with the solid inserted tip glass rods, the 15m casts and not waiting for the jig to hit the bottom but whatever. I guess that's the joy of pier fishing.
I'm no racist person but I've seen Asians keep toadfish and 7-10 cm leather jackets and I've tried to warn them about that toadfishes toxic flesh, fair to say I haven't seen them again.
Anyways I thought it was illegal to keep toadfish isn't it?
