Rollover Pass anglers enjoyed the changes in weather and fishing over the weekend with the trout, redfish, drum, flounder, and whiting making their Spring runs. Continued improvements will all but guarantee great fishing for the upcoming Easter Holidays. So plan on making your Holiday trek to Rollover Pass to enjoy some quality fishing time with you and yours. (Special Note: Check Miss Nancy’s Bait Camp on Face Book for daily fish photos update)
