I fished Dover Admiralty Pier over the weekend. The fishing was rubbish but the pier was a revelation, there were no piles of litter, no corners stinking of urine, just a clean space to fish with toilets and a closed cafe. It cost a fiver and there was a steward in a hut by the entrance. It might be different with hoards of macky bashers and tourists taking four inch bass in summer but it was great. Ok, so local angling club(s) have to pay the chap his wages but his sort of thing would be great on any big pier.
