Summary

This pier sits adjacent to Perdido Pass, where tidal flow concentrates bait and attracts predatory fish. Success here depends less on distance casting and more on timing the tide correctly. Fish often stage along current seams created by the seawall, especially during moving water. Heavier sinkers are commonly required to hold bottom, and anglers should expect changing conditions throughout the day.

Notes

• Fish improves dramatically during moving tides

• Expect wind and current exposure

Bottom Line

A tide-dependent pier that rewards anglers who understand current and timing.
