Megabass Super Destroyer III
The Megabass Super Destroyer III is a short, stout rod ideal for pier fishing for fish under 5 pounds. The 6 foot 9-inch rod uses high-quality parts to complement the stout build. Although this is a bass rod, the short stick makes it ideal for bait-casting from a pier and hauling fish from the water. Although powerful, it is lighter than many of the rods used for pier fishing. This makes it a comfortable choice for long days of casting and holding the rod. The rod has high ratings from Tackletour.com because it has the power to pull fish out of weed beds and structure without compromising sensitivity and strike detection. This rod is an excellent choice for casting bait and lures from a pier.

St. Croix Legend Tournament Swimbait Stick
The St. Croix Legend Tournament Swimbait Stick is a stout 8-foot rod ideal for casting heavy rigs and hauling in fish over 5 pounds. The rod can handle up to 8 ounces of rigging and uses a stiff design for casting the heavy lures and fighting large fish. According to the Tackletour.com review, the rod lacks sensitivity. The lack of sensitivity is important when targeting smaller fish, but this rod can handle pier fishing for heavy species. St. Croix Legend surf rods are also a great option for targeting large tarpon and striped bass from a pier.
