On another website I found:
Day Tickets currently cost £5.00 and are available from the Pier's front office. Season permits are £75, which are valid for a year from the day you bought it. With a permit you are still restricted to 9-5 fishing.
That last sentence "9-5 fishing" is also an indication.

The town website doesn't give any opening times
http://www.clacton-on-sea-essex.co.uk/Clacton_Pier.html
which implies the pier is open 24 hours a day every day (although the attractions will not be, of course).
You can get an 8-6pm day licence from a machine at the pier entrance itself:

Fishing is only allowed from one part of the pier. The link above will also give you the other fishing rules.
