First we lose the peir at San luis......now we are losing Rollover....sucks to be without a boat here in the Galveston area. If your boatless...you get to practice COMBAT CASTING with all the other boatless folks on the piers.
I think I need to work a little overtime and pick up a skiff or something....Im tired of tangling lines with a half-dozen other people. And with all the losses we are taking, it just means that the crowding will get much worse.
I have a boat, but still enjoy surf fishing in Galveston. The new piers are nice, but I don’t like crowds. Go down to the west end and fish the surf. Half the time I’m the only one out there. The same goes for Gilchrest. I always fish the surf just east of rollover and I do okay. Better than sitting there waiting on a bite only to find out your tangled with three other guys.
