Hopefully it’s built better than the one in Ocean grove which is now barricaded off

sorry bulletbob...you are 100 percent wrong on this one..a fisherman did NOT have to be at the end of the pier in a corner to catch ling/whiting...once again your pessimism has overridden your memory

Artists image looks a lot nicer than the fishing pier they just built across Lake Carasaljo in Lakewood.

Ok, the sides were terrific... All the guys crowded the end of the pier, especially the northeast corner just for the companionship...

Look I was there. I lived not far from the pier in the early 80's...

it was long ago but my memory isn't that bad yet.. the guys at the sides of the pier never saw the numbers the guys fishing the end saw, especially the NE corner which was THE hot spot... There were fish there along the sides, but the majority of the fish were caught on on a fairly long cast off the end , and it was always like that..
The end was ALWAYS crowded, and most guys typically fished along the sides only if they could not find a spot on the end of the pier. Why even bother fishing the sides??.. You might as well just fish off the jetty the was right along side the pier on the north side, and save the entrance fee...
