Plenty of space for fishing, but first-come basis. No railings but wooden benches were provided. They have bait available for purchase before you get to the pier. Fishing licenses are required, and payment is taken upon entry. BYOB on the pier, and you can bring your coolers. They have restrooms 🚻, and a portapotty out front. It's right along the highway, and is well lit for night Fishing 🎣.

You will need a fishing license. I have personally seen game wardens in the past that have given out fines for not having a fishing license. The pier operators do not sell fishing licenses.

We're planning a trip to Corpus Christ next month. We are avid fishers but don't want to drag any gear from Colorado. Do y'all rent fishing tackle for shore/dock fishing? If not, can you recommend a place that does? Thanks!

Denise Luzmoor | Jul 2, 2019
Stephen Brown | Jul 3, 2019

They do not rent poles. They rarely have bait and they operate out of a shack now. This place has gone down hill at a record pace. Bob Hall Pier is renting poles. They are pricey and the entrance fee is ridiculous. Castaway bait and tackle had mentioned they were possibly going to start renting poles but I'm not sure if they ever started doing it or not.

Just buy a medium size combo at Wal-Mart. 8ft rod with open faced reel. Make sure to rinse it with fresh water when you get home and you will get many years of use out of it. If you happen to get some sand or salt water on it. Pour some bottled water on it
