Bill Burton Fishing Pier State Park consists of approximately 25 acres of park property, split between Talbot County and Dorchester County, on either side of the Choptank River. The Talbot County side includes about 1 mile of walking trails and a fishable shoreline. The Talbot side is quite popular because of the variety of fish that can be caught including perch, striped bass, croakers, and catfish. The Dorchester County side includes a 270 foot section that adjoins Sailwinds Park via the walkway under the bridge.
