The following fish photos were anglers and fish catches from the month of January. I plan on posting bi-weekly fishing reports until the Rollover Pass fishery can support a weekly report. As of now, the fishing is slow but improves sporadically when weather and tides allow. Redfish, drum, whiting, and sheepshead are being caught now on a regular basis. Only a few speckled trout are active, normally early and late, and on a happenstance basis, which means (u gotta be there to catchem). Nice weather helps the anglers enjoy the day, but doesn’t always help anglers catch fish. It’s early yet folks, be patient. (Special Note: Check Miss Nancy’s Bait Camp on Face Book for daily fish photos update)
