David T. Kennedy Park, Coconut Grove Fishing

5.2· Pier· Miami, FL

David T. Kennedy Park is a bayfront City of Miami park of more than 20 acres on South Bayshore Drive in Coconut Grove, with wooden docks open to the public and a boardwalk bridge that angles out onto Biscayne Bay. The city's park listings do not mention fishing here, so this is a low-confidence entry: the water's edge is public salt water, and no ban was found, but whether fishing is allowed from the docks is unconfirmed, so read the signs before you cast. If fishing is allowed, expect the small fish of Coconut Grove's marina water: snapper, jacks, mullet and the odd snook and barracuda. A light rod and a few shrimp are the whole kit. Boat traffic and a busy park mean you should keep lines short.
