Thread: new to salt!

I am very new to saltwater and pier fishing..... most any kind of saltwater fishing we will be dow over the fourth of july weekend and my son and I plan on doing some serious fishing day and night and if anyone has any advice on what to do or where to go and what to bring..... we could seriously use all the input we can get....

The search thread feature is your friend, and welcome to the forum! You will see many threads encouraging new pier fishers to get in touch with Pier#r. There's a very good reason for that. He is a pier/shore guide, great guy, kid friendly, and very reasonably priced. If you like to catch fish, that's probably the best $100 you can spend on your trip. Good luck and post pictures!

Or go to any bait shop and tell them what/where you want to fish. Preferably J&M, they know their stuff when it comes to fishing and pier fishing.
