Hey guys,
We will be staying at the Sea Cabin condo in IOP and are looking to do some pier/surf fishing in mid July. Has anyone been fishing around there that could give a report? We would like to catch some sharks, and would really like to catch some reds, Spanish, and maybe a king if possible. Rigs, bait, and other locations to fish around the area would be much appreciated! Thanks!
the pier at sea cabin’s is more like a dock, it ends right at the breakers. id rather fish the beach and there are better spots on iop\si. dont get me wrong. its the only place you can fish on front beach with tourest. whiting,pomano,blk drum, flounder, maybe a red or spanish but i cant see a king being caught there. its prob been done. folly would be the spot for kings. stick to the ends of the islands and structure, carolina rig or double drop rigs. small hooks. keep you rigs simple and as light as possable.
im sure other can add more about folly and please report back

I will let you know how we do. I would really like to catch some decent sharks, do you think that could be done from that pier? If so, what baits would be best that i could either catch, or buy easily?
Can catch them from the beach. Go out early morning or late afternoon/night. Catch some whiting, cut it up, throw it out as far as you can, and wait.
you can deff hook a shark from the pier, but if you get a large one, youll just have to cut it off. if you want to get your hands on and take photos youll need the beach. any large cut bait will work. lots of folks here seem to like stingray wings.
