Weclome to the party! I try to get to the piers a few times a year and for basic fun I use a 2 hook bottom rig with a 3 oz sinker and #4 or #2 hooks, bloodworms, fresh shrimp, cut fish for bait. Use the search function on the blue banner with keywords like pier, bottom, mullet, spots, flounder, blues, spanish and you'll find alot of past discussions... But ask and we will help all we can!! Water tempos are climbing right now so it is getting time to hit the piers!!

Howdy and welcome.
Main thing is just to get some gear and get to a pier.
Most anglers will be more than willing to give you some tips to help you out. And also just watch the ones that are catching fish and try to do what they do.
