Exmouth Pier

[staps]

Can anyone tell me if its worth dropping a line over the side of exmouth pier this time of year and what i can expect to catch?

I never knew Exmouth had a pier?? Or are thinking of the place by the harbour entrance at the back of the car park behind a cafe??

[staps]

Yeah. The car park at the seaward entrance to the harbour. Ive always called it the pier. Don't know why!!

still getting some wrasse up to about 3lb any bait but rag best, and plenty of pouting,and all those wierd rock fish,blenies dragonets etc, havent heard of anything else for a few wekks now
also nice and quiet now and can park right up to edge and sit in car lol
need to go over slack high water for best although fishes most tide exept very low
if you can get out into channel flatties are there but so is all the boat traffic

oh the pier is that knackered wooden structure other side of dock entrance which should be demolised as so dangerous, so just stick to dock car park

Thanks for the advice. I might go and give it a try this week. Are the wrasse all round the edge or on a particular side?

[pingu]

I find best if head too left by metal steps that divers use but will produce all along. other corner where pylon is can be good as deep,the corners are less tidal as well some schoolie bass and small pollock still there as well. pm if going may meet you
