Jennette’s Pier was the first fishing pier that opened in Nags Head, North Carolina in 1939 which makes it the oldest pier on the Outer Banks!
North Carolina’s Outer Banks have always been known for some of the most rewarding fishing experiences. Red drum, bluefish, striped bass, flounder, and king mackerel are just a few of the prized fish that people of all skill levels love to catch off of Jennette’s Pier.
They also provide educational programs to learn the basic skills necessary to catch fish. Topics covered in the program include species that are commonly found around the pier, a lesson on fish identification, how to cast and tie your rigs as well as catch and release techniques. You can also enjoy several aquarium exhibits available for you to check out. The next time you or your family are down at Jennette’s Pier, be sure to bring your fishing poles and get ready for a day of fun! You can also bring your special catch back to Knight's Taxidermy in Clayton! We will bring your trophy back to life so that you can cherish that memory forever!
