California Piers are usually public piers open for your entertainment and free fishing opportunities. You must follow the normal fish & game guidelines. If you don't know about the rules, ask the bait & tackle shop where you rent a pole. Shops are located on the major piers or nearby. Our favorite piers are all of them. They range from concrete structures to wood, most often called wharfs when they have the wooden surface you can drive on in places such as Santa Cruz and Santa Barbara.  One of the most often asked questions is, "How many piers are there in California?" The answer depends on if you are referring to public piers, private piers or both.
