    Headed to the pier!

    Came down in March and froze my tail off! Caught a bunch of sheepies. We will be there this afternoon and plan on fishing all week. Can't wait to try a bubble rig and use some of the info Pier#r gave us in March! I'd like to meet some of you folks so if you see a cart with big goofy orange tires that'll be me and my boy Jack so say hi! Take care and hope to meet some of you soon! Blindbat

    Balloon tires for the sand?? be careful those get flats easy, pack light to minimize the wear( splitters&hooks)

    good luck with those and the pier
    even when you click on the picture it says...... balloon SAND tire

    Good luck with your fishing trip, get bent!

    I would highly recommend buying cheap all purpose tires from somewhere like Harbor Freight or Home Depot, to use on the pier.
    Save those beach tires for the beach, as they are costly to replace and like Ironman said, easily damaged.

    I know those tires drive me crazy at the pier but I fish everyday at the beach and they are a must

    Got to the pier today at 7 and ran into pier#r. Good to talk with him and then went to the end and witnessed the 7:20 pm bull red run and it was crazy! I think 12 or so hit the deck and several lost. That was fun to watch. Well looking forward to the rest of the week and try some spaniards!
