Best beach to fish in Central florida?

Looking for a good beach to fish off the pier, either coast doesnt matter

Beach piers in central Florida? Not too sure about Gulf Coast, but really the only two ocean docks I can think of East Coast are Daytona Beach and Cocoa Beach, there's a few spots east (Ocean side) of the locks at Port Canaveral, and there are countless public parks with piers in the Indian River Lagoon, (Mosquito Lagoon, Indian River and Banana River), not to mention bridges, bank fishing and wade fishing (average depth of the IRL is about 4 and a half feet outside the channels). Then there's surf fishing.... I'd say go whichever direction you want to go, when you hit salt water stop at a bait store and ask what's been biting where, they'll usually point you right.

Good luck.

There is a little paperback book on Fl. fishing piers. I used to have one but no longer do. Had alot of useful info. Now I'm not even sure of the title, may just be Fl. fishing piers, but I know one exists. Maybe you can search and find it. If you're near Tampa, the old bridge by the sky bridge offers alot of opportunity.
