Rollover Pass Fishing Report, Sept 8 – Sept 14, 2014

By Ed Snyder/Outdoors
The Redfish run is on folks providing both day and night action. This spot-tail fishing action should last 2 to 3 weeks. Flounder action is hit or miss right now with 1 out of 5 being a keeper. Specs are still around but smaller averages with some 20-plus inchers near the bridge and in the surf. Shark action is heating up with plenty of stringer snipers in the surf. The golden croaker are starting their run with plenty of hand sized to man sized croaker being boxed for the family fish fries. The flounder run isn’t on as yet but it’s not far off, folks.
