BAD BEGINNING BUT GREAT FINISH on Rollover this past week. TS Bill put the kabash the first part of this week, but immediately after, the specks turned on AND STAYED ON on the Gulf side of the bridge. OH, there was a slow down or two but as of this writing the trout action is back on. Flounder also took front seat on the action near the bridge with some nice keepers landed. Night-shift anglers took trout at dark/30 and again at 3 am. Bay side anglers took trout, rats, yellow tail, grunts, piggies, gaffs, flounder, and of course HARD HEADS. Bay waders took flounder and trout. Crabbing was very good with one 8-incher collected.
