I came across this page while looking online for a place to fish and OC. It shows the following:



PIER RULES

• Three (3) rod limit per person.

• No fishing reels over 4/0.

• Bait cutting is only permitted on tables provided for that purpose.

• All fish cleaning refuse, waste, or unusable matter shall be placed in receptacles provided.

• Do not discard bait or fish into the ocean.

• No cast net, hoop net or frame net fishing.

• No shark fishing or shark beaching in the vicinity of the pier.

• No walking, climbing or sitting on the railings.

• No jumping or diving from pier.

• No alcoholic beverages

• No glass containers or styrofoam.

• No firearms or fireworks.

• No bikes, skateboards or rollerblades.

• No motorized modes of transportation.

• No open flames allowed.

• No dogs or other pets allowed.

• Children 12 years and under must be accompanied by an adult while on the pier.



I immediately contacted someone who the MB website has listed as the Acting Assistant Director. I informed her that this “rule” was in direct violation of FL Statute 790.33. She said ”well I don’t know because we checked with other piers and this what they do”. She promised to look into it and let me know about what she finds. I will follow up on this issue and will post any updates.
