Piers in Swansboro

I have not been crabbing in many years.
My understanding is there are two peirs in Swansboro, one Public, one pay-to-fish.
Is that correct?
Do people handline or toss traps for crabs at these peirs?
Been right at 50 years since I went. I'd sure like to go again!

Not sure about the piers there. You can hand line for fun. If you are looking for numbers hit the sound side or a channel with a crab pot on a 6 HR soak. I use fish heads or a fish with a high oil content. The bloodline of a sizable fish works well also. Most fish houses have plenty of bait for free if you ask politely. Good luck!
