I remember catching sprats off the pier in the early 70s, the little shore though has changed because of the half tide barrier installed when the pier was refurbished.This means that the tide never goes fully "out" leaving water in supposedly for leisure reasons. It appears to be silting up to me, as there is an island appearing in the middle and maybe one day we will able to walk again on firm sand at low tide!
