A popular fishing spot in the Rockport-Fulton is back in action and it's already attracting anglers from across the state. The Fulton Fishing Pier off of Fulton Beach Road is now open to the public. The 1,200 foot pier is open 24/7 and comes with plenty of lighting for night fishing. The original pier was destroyed during 2017's Hurricane Harvey. Reconstruction of the pier, along with the community's convention center, began roughly two years after that destructive storm.
