Re: Visiting Bahston

It depends on what kind of fishing you're looking for. There are several head boats that ate within an hours drive of Boston. Those are a good option for someone with little or no saltwater experience. I looked into this last Summer and didn't find any information on fishing piers. They're not prevalent like what you would find down in Florida. New England fishing is more of a beach/jetty type of fishery. Because of that you'd need your own equipment. Do you have access to any saltwater gear?

I do, yes...I am packing some stuff of my father in law's. I have zero problem shore fishing or fishing from a jetty...I did that in Texas, and it was a ball!

I will be visiting Boston at the end of August. I will have one day by myself in the city, and I want to go fishing. Where is a good spot for an out of towner to go? I would prefer to fish in saltwater since I can't do that very well in Wisconsin, but I'm not terribly picky. My buddy I'm visiting isn't a fisherperson, and non of his friends are fisherpeople, so he has no clue. Are there any fishing piers that jut out into the ocean/bay? Do they cost anything? Can you buy bait by them? I've hit a brick wall, so I'm looking for inside help. Thanks in advance!
