Went out to try the St. Pete pier with my wife, another friend and our dog. Found out that we could not drive out there and hopefully use disabled parking as my wife cannot walk very far. We would have had to park blocks away and walk or take trolley...with all of our stuff.
Question: has anyone tried or fished that pier?
We then went to Gulfport. I was skeptical and walked over to the seawall. Water was too shallow and it was late afternoon. We unpacked and had our picnic lunch and walked the dog. The picnic area and play grounds were good and adequate for family outings.

We were supposed to fish with Ron one time @ the Gulfport pier but he ended up not making it out there. Captain Jeff Hubbard has posted a video I think last year of some guys catching some nice fish out there on the pier.

I used to work security at the pier a year ago, and as far as I know there isn't any disabled parking spots near it, or at least enough of them. I had to park far away from it just to work there...
