Things were heating up with the specks, reds, drum, and flounder coming out of their slump, then the monsoon hit flooding Rollover with 4 to 5 inches of rain. April showers in March, probably get the March winds in April and winters snow in May. BUT, things are ONCE AGAIN looking up for Rollover’s fishery. All we have to do is WAIT for the bay waters to clear its sweet water and RESALT AGAIN. Predictions for warmer weather this coming week should set things right for good fishing action, but only time will tell- TICK, TICK, TICK!!! (Special Note- Check Miss Nancy’s Bait Camp on Face Book for daily fish photos update)
