Fishing pier to be built at Willow Creek SRA

PIERCE — A fishing pier is being built near the boat ramp west of the campground at the Willow Creek State Recreation Area near Pierce.

For public safety, the construction area, parking lot, and boat ramp will be closed temporarily starting Nov. 18.

The 15-foot by 20-foot pier will be built off an existing jetty just west of the boat ramp. The pier is designed for anglers to fish in deeper water while providing accessibility to all anglers.

Benches will be installed, and a portion of the pier will have a roof to provide more comfort.
