Fishing is a popular pastime and a way for connection between the kids and dad . Whether it ’ s in the salty sea air , river waters or brackish inlets , Northeast Florida is home to numerous fishing spots . Many communities even provide ponds or river piers to indulge in this event . ( Though one might be skeptical of eating a fish from a man-made community pond . Gulp .)
If your community doesn ’ t have water access , try one of these fishing spots :
St . Johns County : Nocatee Landing , Guana River Dam , Vilano Beach Pier , St . Augustine Pier .
Clay County : Doctors Lake Park , Heart Lake .
Flagler County : High Bridge Park , Gamble Rogers Memorial State Recreation Area , Flagler Beach Pier .
