Pier Fishing Guide
Pier Fishing Has its Advantages!
 Welcome to Pier fishing
guide. I have been pier fishing 10 years or more and I can personally say if you don't have a boat; it
is the next best thing. There are many
benefits to pier fishing, as we all know there are also major set backs as there is to everything in
life.
There are many tricks and
techniques that can be used while pier fishing. I have created the pier fishing guide to show other anglers, some
of the best rigs, tips and techniques.
I have found that the Skyway fishing piers in St. Petersburg FL, in my opinion is one of the best
fishing piers in Florida. Located in central Florida, fishing in the Tampa Bay with the recent artificial reef
development has made the fishing boom, fishing the mouth of the Tampa Bay gives you the opportunity to catch a
large variety of fish, a few for example: grouper, mackerel, snook, tarpon, jacks, cobia, sharks of many
species etc...
Pier fisherman have many advantages the boaters don't have, we are usually up quite high, so with the proper
polarized glasses you can see fish from great distances, there is not an opportunity to get sea sick and
we don't have to spend 200 hundred dollars in gas chasing bait because the majority of the time it is right under
us.
The key to pier fishing is location, you have to know
where the artificial reefs are or if there are any at all, If not you should probably try and target piers that
have some sort of reef structure, structure holds fish. There are things that you can try, if there is potential
for the pier to be a good fishing pier, than you can create your own mini artificial reefs and mark where you put
them and in a couple of weeks there should be fish housing the structure.
Things to look for when looking for good fishing potential area, is water flow, bait and structure. With these
three things you can't go wrong. Make sure whatever you use for your artificial reef that it does not
hurt the environment, I would usually use some form of brick design, with actual tree limbs or something in that
nature.
