To the moderator, or whoever can help with this issue. There frequently is confusion in the threads about just which pier is being discussed. Some of the piers in MD discussed are not in the hot spots part of this website. In other instances, nicknames make it confusing. For example, IRI is frequently discussed, and I have no idea where it is. Also, folks talk a lot about the "route 50 bridge." That is a particularly unhelpful name. When I drive from DC to Ocean City on route 50, I pass over at least a dozen "route 50 bridges." Is it possible to update the hot spots pages to reflect more of the piers/bridges and to list common nicknames?

IRI - Indian River Inlet (Delaware, right around Rehoboth I believe, never fished it)
Route 50 bridge - the last one before you get to Ocean City
Tank - Choptank pier (old bridge) just outside of Cambridge
AI - Assateague Island (4 wheel ORV permit required)

IRI - Indain River Inlet(Delaware), 50's bridge(just before you get into OC), Tank(Choptank River,Chambridge,Md.) I know what you mean,I to get when I hear about the different nicknames,SPELL THEM OUT for the rest of us like the newbees. My 2 cents.TRIGGER

SPSP - Sandy Point State Park
PLO - Point Look Out
NIMBY - Not In My Back Yard
PBR - Pabst Blue Ribbon
NBP - North Beach Pier

IRI info is listed in the Hotspots section under Delaware. One of my favorite places to fish...well worth the 2-1/2 drive one way from my house.
