Sit right back and I'll tell you a fish story about the iconic Deerfield Beach Pier. Th first…read morewooden Deerfield fishing pier was built 1951-1952. Low and close to the water, it was a place for the community to gather and fish. In 1956 the pier was purchased by Robert Jahn, from Mt. Vernon, New York. Local, Joe Cass was hired as the pier manager. He added a restaurant, tackle shop, and chum machine to which he added a special mixture of meat, oil, and oatmeal which kept the fish coming and lured in the fishermen too. Hurricane Donna wiped out the pier in 1960. City commissioners proposed a bond issue to replace it and on August 1, 1963, a new wooden 720 foot pier with concrete pilings was dedicated. Through the years different people leased the pier but none were able to turn a profit. The last lessee, Charlie Thompson turned the pier back over to the city and became the pier manager. He was able to make the pier profitable for the first time with events like fishing contests. In 1976 during a tour of South Florida, President Gerald Ford stopped by at Charlie's invitation. It was his proudest accomplishment and Charlie retired from duty in 1988. Today the pier is 970 feet long and attracts thousands of sightseers and fishermen a year. The pier is open 6 AM to 11 PM daily. They ask that people who are fishing keep a minimum of 10 feet apart. The pier also has a souvenir and bait shop sells bait, tackle, fishing accessories and rents fishing rods. My favorite thing about the Deerfield Beach Pier is actually free and you don't even have to go there in person. At the pier, the city operates 3 live stream cameras, the pier camera, the beach camera, and my favorite, the world famous spinner sea camera where you can watch the fish swim right up to it. This feed is shown on the bait shop wall and online. To see the cameras you just have to go to the pier website. During my last visit I was disappointed with the condition of the pier. I paid $2, which granted is not a lot of money but you couldn't even walk to the end of the pier because it was closed off by a gate. The only one using the end of the pier were the pelicans. The pier was also dirty and smelly. Fast forward to my visit this weekend and the pier is looking better than ever now that phase one and two of reconstruction have been completed. You can walk all the way to end and there are new benches and fish cleaning stations. Best of all is that you can fish and walk the pier for free until January. I even ran into a film crew. A few finishing touches are still being completed including The Break House, a new kitchen and beach bar that will be soon be opening next to the entrance of the pier. Come out and enjoy this iconic Deerfield Beach landmark while the weather is gorgeous and it is free to visit.

Went here for a day of bait fishing with friends. We got lucky and had a beautiful day ahead of us,…read morewith barely any clouds after sunrise. The water was so blue and clear, we were able to see all the fish swimming around. We even saw a ray, 3 sea turtles, and a few barracudas. We also caught a bunch of bait as well with the squid we bought from the receptionist! There were also a lot of boats near us, but security was on top of it. The other fishermen near us were kind and respectful. The only con is that parking near the dock is way too little. We arrived at 5:30am, 30min before the dock opened, but it started to fill up around 6:00am. Be warned, otherwise you pay for parking at the garage.

It generally sails 3 times a day with a morning, afternoon and evening trips of around 4 hours each. They provide you with rod, reel, bait and a fishing license is unnecessary. The times I've gone out on it were OK, but for drift fishing, the boat was somewhat overcrowded on those occasions. Hence, I would say the best times might be off season when there are fewer people around. I won't comment on the catch since that is generally a situation of the fish being cooperative, certainly not the lack of skill or in any way the fault of the ship, the crew or the fishermen.

The Helen S is a my favorite boat but the Fish City Pride is a perfect alternative. I prefer to fish the morning trips so that I'm at the marina early enough to watch all the boats and marine life. The staff are like family. Very helpful and always excited to see people catch fish. The mates are knowledgeable and quick to help with fish and tangles. The captains know all the best spots to fish and will personally clean your fish for you back at the dock. Other fishing charters include a 45 minute boat ride to the fishing hole. With this company, you've got lines in the water 10 minutes after leaving the marina. This means you get a full extra hour of fishing unlike the Ft Lauderdale based charters. They provide everything you need to fish. All you need is your sunglasses, sunblock, a sandwich, and something to drink. This is a alcohol free boat so leave the beer at home.
