Saltburn Pier

Fishing Seasons

Saltburn Pier shines in February and March, especially after a strong northerly swell when cod are plentiful. During flat, calm, and frosty nights, whiting also make for impressive catches. Whether it’s high water in summer or winter, the pier continues to offer rewarding fishing experiences.

Best Baits

In the warmer months, crab and fish baits tend to attract more catches. As the seasons change, worm, crab, fish, and mussel baits become more effective, bringing in cod, whiting, and occasionally bass. Choosing the right bait can make a significant difference in your fishing success at Saltburn Pier.

Pier Features

Although sea damage and council cutbacks have shortened the pier by half, it remains a solid fishing spot. At low tide, the surrounding rocks and sandy beach provide additional areas to cast your line. The varied fishing spots cater to different preferences, ensuring anglers have multiple options to enjoy their time by the sea.
