Good news for all you ChumCity anglers and bayou lovers! The fishing village of Alabama, Bayou La Batre (and Coden, of course!), is about to get even better for pier fishing enthusiasts. Let's face it, sometimes Rolston Park Pier can get a little crowded. But fear not! The pier is getting a MAJOR upgrade, essentially doubling in size! That's right, twice the space for fishing, crabbing, and enjoying those stunning water views. This expansion is thanks to a $250,000 grant, championed by State Rep. Chip Brown. Brown emphasized the importance of this local resource, allowing more people to enjoy the Gulf Coast's recreational opportunities. Mayor Henry Barnes is thrilled, noting the added space will provide a safer and more comfortable experience for everyone. Rolston Park isn't just about the pier. It's a complete outdoor experience! You'll find winding sidewalks perfect for a stroll, a playground for the kids, and covered pavilions for picnics and gatherings. It's the perfect spot for a family day out! Remember Forrest Gump and Bubba's shrimping "bidness"? Well, now you can experience a little piece of that Bayou La Batre magic for yourself. When you visit, be sure to check out the newly expanded pier and cast a line!Bayou La Batre Pier Gets a Big Boost!
