I fish here every year and I’ve caught tons of sheepies, mackeral and drum out here but it just gets a little crowded sometimes and it can become hard to find a fishing spot on the pier (sometimes). Also get there early in the morning because parking gets taken up really fast and it’s hard to find other parking spots near the pier once it’s taken up (parking also costs money there).
Honestly, this is probably one of my favorite bodies of water nothing like tighten my lines while relaxing on the water was once a city slicker from east Baltimore but I’m loving the cape life! If you’re not from here I’ll give ya the warning no one gave me just don’t swim here please the river has teeth!
