Pickering Wharf Salem Description

Wharf/pier that extends into Salem harbor, near downtown Salem MA. Very touristy area, usually crowded but with good access to water on both sides of pier. Schools of stripers usually abundant with lures and bait producing fish. Can catch limited flounder, but usually have to get past skate that line the bottom in Salem harbor. Limited street parking, especially during tourist season. Good easy fishing spot. Bring a chair and a rod holder and cast out some bait.
