About Keepers

From the 1950s to present day, Keepers Pier has always been revered as one of the best and most productive fishing piers on the entire US Gulf Coast. It’s location, water depth, and abundance of fish species can make for an outstanding fishing experience that will leave you with memories for years to come. Our concrete Pier stretches 1230 feet out into the Gulf; putting you on the same fish you will find on a boat 10-15 miles out. The record fish for the pier is a 13’7″, yes that’s 13 Feet, 7 inch Tiger Shark. That was caught back in the 60s, but the most recent record was an 11′ 7″ Tiger Shark caught on Memorial Day 2003. Today you can find almost every salt water species at Keepers Pier. Today anglers catch Pompano, Tarpon, King Fish, Shark, Speckled (Spotted) Sea Trout, Red Fish, Black Drum, Catfish.

REDFISH

When the schools of Reds come in, the rods start bending. Red Drum is a very tasty and sought after fish for it’s excellent table fair. It’s not uncommon to see 7 or 8 different people with huge redfish on the line at one time. Read More

BLACK DRUM

Not as sought after as Red drum, but nonetheless they get huge and will give you a great fight. This is not a big school fish like the Red drum, but when you get one one, be prepared for a battle. Read More

SPECKLED TROUT

Another very desired meat, the Spec can be caught from 15 inches to 40 inches. When the schools of specs come in, they come in the thousands. It is so easy to limit out on Specs here, even a young child would have little problem. Read More
