Hi Halibutralph,
The Belmont Pier's bait store is closed but you can fish there still as for now. The pier was closed for remodeling. I guess they are trying to make it a lovers pier or something like that? Big Carousel in the entrance area to the pier with maybe a restaurant at the end. There was a sign on the bait shop that said they are going to have a meeting to see if Long Beach even has enough budget for it! They should've done that before they closed the bait shop. This whole thing has been going on for a couple of years now and when it does close, there will be no fishing on the pier for a year!
The Belmont Pier is where most of us get the good sized Smelts.
