Rollover Pass Fishing Report, Oct 20 – Oct 26, 2014

By Ed Snyder/Outdoors
The extended Indian summer weather was a definite plus factor for anglers visiting Rollover Pass for the Annual Fall Flounder run. Many flounder are being caught but only a few keepers are being boxed. This next cool down at the end of the week should get the larger females running- BUT- Dredging in November when the flounder limit drops from five per day to just two per day will limit fishing areas. Redfish and specks are still active as are the croaker and whiting in the cut and the surf.
