Sunset over the town of Fulton
The pier all lit up at sunset
The building you pay at and can get snacks
End of the fishing pier looking south
The bite, the fight, sometimes not til after midnight.

This is the Fulton Harbor Bait & Seafood store.

Wish I was a kid! If mom called, "It's time to go." I would reply, "No. Never."

This pier is very nice. It is extremely long so the walk out to the end takes time but that is where setting up to fish is the easiest. There are benches at the end and a cleaning station along with a second cleaning station at the beginning by the store. The price is $5 a pole with a limit of 4 per person. Plenty of places to stop and get bait in the convention center plaza or even a fancy coffee near by!

Great place to go fishing. So you may not catch anything. You may just catch hardheads. You may catch a big beauty. You can always catch a good time. Staff is great. People there are always friendly and helpful. They sell bait and rent fishing poles.

Good experience. The ownership was super laid back. Only pay for the poles that you have not the amount of people which is nice.

"Gone Green!"Fulton fun in the sun! This fishing pier is currently closed, as of this writing. Hurricane Harvey did a number on this pier, and it's only about 60% standing. The famous green lights have been shut down until further notice. People still fish though. There's three or four little covered picnic areas where people hang out, fish and relax in the shade. When I went, one of the picnic tables had all kinds of muck on it, where it looked like someone had cleaned their fish on the table, and neglected to wipe it down afterwords. This place has an obscene amount of parking for so few picnic areas. Maybe when the pier is working this place gets a lot more full. You could do donuts in a semi truck in the parking lot here, no problem. There are permanent restrooms in a concrete building. Once they get the pier reopened, this place will be a lot more fun. The pier was free if you're just going out to walk around and check things out. There was a $3 fee for fishing poles. But you can't walk or fish from the pier anymore for the time being.

Woke up this morning with one dream,... to walk along the Fulton Beach road and live "in the moment." I could immediately smell the salt air like opening a candle jar perhaps named, "The First Day of the Rest of Your Life."I saw the waters pull itself onto the shore of tiny broken shells like a sheet pulled atop a bed over and over. Through my binoculars, I could watch a ship in Aransas Bay and lots of shrimp boats seining their catch. The white pelicans were out swimming alongside the brown pelicans. People were driving by in their cars and waving to me like they knew me. I walked on the shore, and the large cement blocks for erosion control, and on the piers and then I arrived at the park. I stopped in at the Fulton Harbor Bait & Seafood store and said hello to Jesus, the guy who takes care of the aquatic pools for blue crabs, finger mullet, live shrimp and other types of live bait. I talked to him about a state license for fishing and crabbing. He is always supportive and knowledgeable. I returned to my walk home and it took two hours. Then I drove back to the bait stand and got 15 blue crabs for lunch. They're $2 a piece and the store is cash only. I took lots of photos so you could experience this great day with me!!Four stars were chosen because the pier has not yet been reconstructed after Hurricane Harvey.

I love this pier. Not only is it never crowded but the place is lit up with green led lights. The city of Fulton put some money into making this a truley great fishing spot. They sale dead bait in the check in office and its $3 a pole to fish. This past visit I caught a3 foot shark, trout and Gaftop. Each time I come into town I hit this pier up and am never disappointed. I will also mention my favorite thing about the Pier. As your walking up to the peir there is a bait stand to the right. Ask for the table prawn shrimp....OMG....I always pick up 3-4 pounds to take back to the house to fry up. No lie they are the best ever and at a very reasonable price.Just a note: Be prepared for the wind. I usually fish late at night and the wind really picks up. Bringing along a windbreaker would be a smart idea.

The pier is long so it's perfect for the kids and adults for fishing or just to take a little stroll on the. The lights are a nice addition to see the fish swimming around and they always have dolphins around so that's good for the kiddos. The fishing is great through out the whole pier but is especially good for black drum and sharks and rays at the end. Price to get on are fair and the staff are always nice.

Fulton Fishing Pier what is the point of an honest John box if your staff approaches customers who paid at 5:30am through your box ($10 in all ones so you can check) and tells them they have to pay for a wrist band starting at 7am when staff gets there. Mind you they did their round at 7:40ish.My frustration is due to your staff insinuating I did not pay because they could not "see" my money from where you dispense the money. Of course you can't because I pushed it down. Your staff also said they had no way of checking that I paid but that I would have to pay again. I at least would have appreciated being given the benefit of the doubt if you could not check. If that's the case, post it. There was nothing saying I would have to pay again. I wanted to love this pier but being treated like that after I was honest and paid makes it difficult to ever come back. Do better. Be better.
