I see the Jack in the Box in the distance where I parked my car the 1 visit I’ve had to that pier. Shame that they closed off the end to fishing. I assume Rubys had ben closed. I don’t remember the pier be to welcoming to pier anglers before (like being in the way). But I’d love to pull a magnum sized, mackeral-patterned, crank bait behind a kayak at the end of that pier at the right time of year for thresher shark.

Ruby's departed years ago to be replaced by the Malibu Farms Cafe. At the front of the pier is the Malibu Farms Restaurant. Both are fairly expensive and care little about pier fishermen.

Slow fishing but a pretty day. Unfortunately the restaurant has taken over the end and restricted fishing which I believe is illegal. Not sure the Coastal Conservancy knows about this. Wish we still had UPSAC.

The pier is owned by the State of California, managed by the State Parks and Recreation Department. The restaurant and restaurant chain is owned by Helene Henderson, Swedish author and chef. She is married to actor, John Stockwell.

I'm not sure, but I think that Jim and Rocky fished the Paradise Cove Pier, when it was longer.

Many early episodes showed the Malibu Pier. Later the trailer was parked near the Sand Castle restaurant at the Paradise Cove Pier and that pier was usually what you saw on screen.
