Great Catches every time I go! (Edit) There should be a day, where it’s free for families! Maybe 6 or 7 families could share the pier with their kids and teach them on the importance of the ocean.️
Its a great time with a lot of great people! The fish bite like theres no tomorrow, as there may very well not be for them. I would recommend for people of all ages with its reasonable prices and accommodations. The only issue you may run into is the parking, but that is easily overlooked once youve arrived! Happy fishing!
Great Lighting and electrical plugs! Lights even under the pier to light up water.
The BEST pier in the Tidewater area!!! Very nice staff. GREAT FISHING HOLE!!!!
Nice pier aside from some other people on pier openly smoking pot.
Love to fish here nice atmosphere good people lots of room to fish .
Puppy drums were running on Saturday had A great time
Love this pier! I was disappointed to see it closed for repairs, but look forward to coming back again once restored!
I love this place so much I’m just curious how soon do you think you guys will be open the fishing pier
This place is awesome and really fun i live near so i came a lot before it broke i think they are fixing it or something because there is a big crane next to it
Would have been better if I was able to take a walk on it
I love this place this is the spot me and my family go to fish. it was a tragedy when that barge crashed into it. and sometimes...most of the time it has trash every where but i cant be mad
Its a really great spot, but I came here last night specifically for open 24hrs but I saw no updates on any platforms saying closed for construction or for how long, so drove a hour for nothin will come back w.e it opens tho!
One of my favorite places to be.
No fish tht day
(EDIT: My favorite pier as far as FISHING is concerned. I do have MY best luck at this pier.)Small parking lot. Usually out of food by 4pm. Price is fair though, and they do 2 dollars off if you have your saltwater license.EDIT: Ive never been told of understaffing before just that food was sold out. My apologies to the owner. There is indeed overflow parking and the lot is directly across from the small main lot making it easy to access the pier.
Info showing fishing pier is open 24hrs I drove 2hrs and it still under constructions.Very disappointed
I have been fishing here several timesI like the place and the pier stuff and the people are nice.Im from fairfax county 3hours away the pier, dont mind if i drive 3hours just to get here.croaker,spot,flounder,trout,ribbon fish,and lots of referent kind of fish you can catch here.Cobia?yes if your thinking to go here just hit the road.dont forget to bring a crab trap,you might wanna throw em down either cut fish or chicken neck will work,lots of blue crab youll ganna enjoy here.
Is fishing from shore allowed in this area? Only asking since the pier is down.
Really Nice pier
Let me know when it reopens
Great Fishing Pier!! You never know what you are going to catch last night we caught red drum. No keepers the have to be 18 in. Several spot and croakers. We also caught about 30 crabs. Check it out you won’t be sorry if you know how to fish.
Absolutely beautiful at night. Plenty of nice people and lots of action in the water. We were sightseeing tonight ($1/adult) but we will be back to fish later ($8/adult for fishing). $8 minimum to pay by card. They even have snacks out here. Open 24/7 from April-December. Pier is closing the morning of 7-30-2019 as seen on a sign out there tonight. (They sell bait too.)
First time going to this pier and it was a good experience. Caught a couple fish and a crab. They have a little shop there that has bait and snacks. Also has restrooms. You can fish here if you dont have a license, youll just pay and get a wrist band.
Reopening date and ceremony tentatively now planned for mid October.
It was beautiful befor the barge tore it down a few months ago! They are in the process of rebuilding it!
Great fishing pier love it, hope it get repair soon looking forward to this summer
I have never been skunked at this pier!!!! All types of species too one of the best piers to fish in our area
Great place to fish
We love fishing here. Relaxing. A lot less stress than taking the boat out.
A sizeable pier open all day for many types of fish and fisherman! An $8 wristband gets you on from 6 AM to 6 AM, and the bait & tackle shop is open 24 hours a day in season as well! Pole rental is good at $10 a day and the staff is super friendly and helpful most of the time. We did get chased off due to a huge storm, but once it passed we were right back out! While Im not a fishing pier connesour, in fact this would be the first Ive paid to use, it was definitely a good experience!
Great family fun place.We caught a lot of spots and some croakers. I loved the atmosphere. It’s also one of the safest places I have been to take a child fishing. They sell just about everything you need at the entrance booth. There is also a beach beside the pier.
The fishing was just ok. The pier was in pretty good shape. Some of the lights need to be replaced. (Hard to see). Staff was nice.
Any one know when this pier will be open for fishing again??????
Family oriented area, good fishing and swimming. Good restaurant & service. Always a good time!
Okay. The fishing was decent. The men bathroom needs to be kept clean. Toilet paper scattered over the place.
Great place to fish and just hang out with nature.
It was very peaceful at night my husband and I really enjoyed walking the beach at night
Non working lights on Pier at night, that remain non working for months, no longer preparing at least hot dogs, like other piers. Pier damage, structural and non structual, that goes unfixed for lengthy time. Having cones beside/over trip/slip hazards, for months is unacceptable. Need some type of parking to ID vehicles, that you are ACTUALLY on Pier. Need more attention to bathroom, especially mens.
Never over crowded... Seems like some of the Happiest people come there to fish. Im not sure if I come there to fish or socialize...lol. Great Pier!
Too many people on the pier
It was fun
Great pier. Friendly staff. Conveniently located near me.
This pier is open 24 hours which is great. You can catch a variety of fish with the right bait and during cobia season this pier is a local favorite
Very nice pier. Free parking. 8.00 dollars to fish. Bathrooms, and it has a store.
Nice place to fish. Pier goes out 1K+ feet.
Great little pier...I went in mid August...incoming tide and the croaker bite was on fire...along with spot...Spanish in the AM and Cobia...get the app from the Virginia DNR to ensure you dont screw up!! Pier fee covers your license, so need to purchase one while fishing on the pier...bring a chair and enjoy the scenery of nothing else...GREAT spot to take the kids fishing...staff was friendly and helpful.
This was a good place for fishing too bad its no longer available hope they build it up fast
Nice place to relax and feel mother nature..
Closed the pier because of thunder 25 miles away. Its nice to be warned, but Id like to be ableTo make up my own mind, rather than being dictated too!
It was awesome beautiful beach specially for kids water not to deep we had a very good time
Great fishing during the summer, tons of Cobia/Spades!
Good pier, good store, non co-operating fishclean for a paid public fishing pier.
The mullet were amazing to watch from the pier. Someone amongst the Fisher Folk was playing Motown. I couldnt have asked for more.
Love the shop and bathrooms. There is a fisher and non fisher fee. Kids also pay.
First time fishing in the ocean but I loved it. Everything was convenient and clean.
Alittle run down but still nice with a good view
Awesome place to fish but Virginia fishing regulations suck
My boys enjoy fishing here. Reasonable prices.
Here fishy fishy, never had much luck their but it is a nice facility. Nice staff but not very knowledgeable about fishing. They should post more on social media about whats being caught.
Nice place to fish and relax. Dont always catch but thats why its called fishing and not catching..lol
Great place to fish especially at night! (Blood worms work best.)
It was awesome. The fish were nice size we caught them
Beautiful place but I dont think its fair to charge for those who dont fish. I just went with my husband.
Caught a lot of trout and croakers, a wonderful place for families and avid fishermen.....
Nice and clean pier. Go there to relax.
Excellent place to take the family for day or night outing be prepared to catch fish.
Nice to be able to fish as a visitor without having to get a license.
I enjoyed my time at the pier! I got to say hello to some people I knew and had not seen for a while. Everyone was out there to just enjoy an evening of fishing, no drama.
Nice people. Very fair prices on all you need to fish and enjoy the day. No fishing license? No worries! $8.00 gets you fishing all day! The beach is literally right there So you can fish and your significant other can watch you from the beach. And your wrist band gets you all day access to the pier. You can fish, go for a swim and come back as often as you like that day.
Holiday weekend, pier overcrowded and womens bathrooms would not flush. Ive been to pier before and did not have this experience. Fisherman that were fishing for Cobia left a cut up fish under the sink all day until he left at end of day it smelled horrible in the heat. In addition, the Cobia fisherman would stop all would be fisherman from fishing on the end telling them the rules. After dusk regular fisherman still could not fish until the lights came on this was not posted the sign said sunrise to sunset. Lights were out mid peir causing unsafe environment. Totally disappointed.
A fantastic place to toss out your crab pot
Not too crowded for a weekday. Did have afternoon storms that closed the pier for a while - Bummer! Only a few rude people.
Interesting place to talk to people fishing off the pier.
My favorite fishing spot, had sum pretty great fishing experience out here on my own from novice to expert fishermen on the pier. Not bad for a Puerto rican
Kinda crowded with people and several kids at 1230am but crokers was running good
It was nice an clean bathroom was not to far to walk to nice fishing
Great place to fish as long as you dont like actually catching anything
Great atmosphere, clean,overall just great place to fish
We arrived around 230 am to fish by 6am we were told to pay the fee again. The lady at the counter told my husband I explained it clearly that you would have to pay again and I know I said it to you cause I say it to everybody....when my husband responded she said the same thing again. Just a simple apology for the misunderstanding because I did not hear her say you would have to pay again 4 hours later. Next time they should be a bit more clear about it...
Is the pier open?
I have been coming here for years... Even if I had a bad time its still a good time :)
Very nice every time Igo there..
Excellent fishing pier! It is well equipped for anyone or family looking for a good day of fishing or crabbing. They have a concession stand where you can buy food, drinks, snacks and bait. No fishing license is required. Enjoy!
Nice clean beach its the only beach I take my family to
Good place to fish and crab has a decent beach too.
Good people usually clean restrooms.
People were friendly and although it looked crowded we managed to have plenty of space to ourselves
Something fishy going on here nice place to take a philapeno
