Dan and Gary,
When I was stationed at USCG Base Galveston, used to wade fish Bolivar
peninsula and the backwaters of the bay, especially around Bay Cliff and
also float fish it. We had great success with shrimp, Clouser and mud puppy
flies on a 9 wt. Used to catch specks, reds and ounce in a while flounder on
them. Course that was way back in 88, they may have different taste now.

Yessir, I have fished all the way from Sabine Pass to Surfside. Rollover
pass is like a carnival, if you fish just the pass itself. It is better to
go down the beach a bit and get away from the throngs that fish just the
pass. I haven't fly fished there yet, but I will do that this coming
year. Bolivar is a bit less crowded to say the least! Good fishing too
around the flats and the old fort there near the ferry to Galveston.
I fish Dirty Pelican and Meachum piers, but not with much success. Better
success on the beaches themselves.
Tight lines,
Dan Harriman

If at first you don't succeed, maybe you shouldn't try sky diving!
