- Took a trip across the ferry to Bolivar Peninsula to check out rollover pass to see how far they had gotten on closing it and sure enough it is closed. But does that mean its not worth fishing anymore? Watch the video to find out!

I want to thank you for your awesome Drone footage. That was very sad to see that, the closure. However thank you for sharing your trip with us. Great footage. Tight Lines and Full Limits To Ya 🎣 Merry🎅 Christmas🎄
I used to fish Rollover Pass with my grandparents when I was a little girl!! Good video!
In Texas the pattern blk/sil/org is called the 808 an old L&S Mirrolure color, that’s a great pattern fresh/salt, and the cuts & drains across from the tidal gauge on a out going tide is great fishing especially around the old sun oil cut!
Thanks for the input! Cool to know the color pattern name.
Maybe they should have installed a concrete pipe or two into the bulkhead? Allowing for a little tidal flow would probably be good for the fishery and not cause any erosion issues. They could even install shutoff valve(s) for hurricanes. Back when I was young, there was essentially a ditch here that served the same function, before they actually dredged out the pass. It let a moderate amount of water flow in/out and the fishing at that time was excellent.
Les B my grandfather has told me the same thing about how there was a a natural ditch.
I sure was looking forward to doing a hell of a lot of fishing at Rollover Pass when I retired & had more time to enjoy the best times & best catches ever. Bit as we now know, the decision was made to fill in the pass, so that put the brakes on all that. When I was a kid we lived on Big Hill which is pretty close to the pass & we would go down there & fish & eat a ton of watermelon. I miss the pass & the old days, fishing is not at all what it used to be from memories 1959 till closing.
Those skits are sweet!! Makes quick work of that intercoastal!
The Ronay Boys they really are amazing! You can fish in areas you can with a kayak and still paddle stealthy in 3 inches of water but have speed to get you where you want to go.
nice drone video of the pass. i had been wondering what it looked like. maybe you should do another one of what it looks like know. I am intrigued by the solo skiff.
Ooh good idea! I haven’t been over there in a while. I will for sure have to go check out the current form of pass and how it’s fishing
I remember fishing there with my uncle used to be so beautiful
I suggest going to surfside beach on any north wind morning you will find fish some big ones too
Damn shame about Rollover being closed off like that.
Yah it really is but who knows. After everything adjusts the fishing might improve. I know my grandfather used to fish rollover back before they dredged it out. It was only a little ditch that went through and he said the fishing was phenomenal at the ditch and in east bay. Only time will tell!
Awesome drone footage. You caught some nice trout out there though. I went couple of months ago to marsh plenty of are to cover. Tight lines.
You missed your chance. East Matagorda is full of big trout right now
man roll over use to produce some fine flattys i fish that inlet back in the 70's some fine redfish also good job guy's it was real fine to see the pass agin i live in Virginia were i'm seeing some fine flattys and specs also no shrimp here they are mostly eating saltwater minnows but we have weakfish and specs summer flounder and flounder and some of the biggest saltwater striper in the 70" range i miss rollover nothing like fending off the bugs at night flying and not flying haha
I hate that Rollover is closed.
Thanks for the info and merry Christmas
Yall should go offshore for kings or to local rigs in the spring.
Great videos, but would be interested in what lures you are using and basic setup. Trying to learn more about inshore fishing. Thanks!
Beautiful trout !!!
I have property on bolivar and I just bought a craigcat boat was wondering if you could show me around the intercoastal when I'm down again
Was out there before it closed posted in TKF. Good video. They will still be there next year too!
Cool! A nice day for fishing.
Thank you for the video! I haven’t been to rollover since it was closed down. Have you been back any other times after this? I’m wondering if the fishing has improved. I might have to take my kayak and find out for myself :)
I went back not long after it was closed but not to see the long term effects. I have heard that is has hurt fishing in the marshes but I will have to find out!!
Just a heads up brotha, we caught 5 trout on consecutive days last week between 22-26. All in the clear/green flats on AM soft plastics (atomic firebelly)
Wow man thats awesome to get on them for consecutive days like that!
Are you shark fishing 2020? That motored skiff will be beast on long dropping baits off the beach.
great video man! keep up the work!
I check that leader after every catch...
Bummer
Don't worry the next Hurricane will open it back up..🤔
seanfishingtexas ^yup!
Lol probably
Would really like to know how to find rollover by water to fish it in my little boat
Well they were closing it as you saw in the video. I haven’t been back since then but looks like they were going to totally fill in. Google maps on your phone is your best friend to finding where your at on the water if you don’t have a chart plotter.
Ain’t nothing like fishing chocolate water..
What's the lure that you caught the trout with called ? It looks nice
the brand is mirrolure and the name of that lure is mirrodine
How you like tohatsu? Any complaints? How many hours would you say you have on it?
Travis Baetz I love it man. No problems at all. I only run ethanol free gas in it cause it burns so little fuel and it always starts on second pull. I would say average trip I run abt 6-8 miles. Max say I do 10 miles running at 14mph and I have taken 21 trips in it (how many videos I have made since getting it) max hours I could have put on it is about 15hrs.
Awesome man, yeah I plan on getting my skiff with my tax return this coming year on the westcoast, lookin like tohatsu will be the best bet. You gettin any heat from UA-cam with the new regulations?
Nice
Nice video . Do you have your 107?
Thanks! I dont know what you are referring to about 107?
why is it closed tho?
The 2009 Texas Legislature authorized closing Rollover Pass amid erosion and environmental damage. The project was delayed several years following opposition by some sports and fishing groups, plus rising costs.
Sheesh pass finally closed *goes to buy a yak or skiff*
ExoticEd Lmao yup!
Yo bro if you like fishing twitch baits, let me send ya some custom made lures.
