Our crew headed out for a winter evening backcountry fishing trip around Butler Beach. The partly cloudy skies made for comfortable conditions on the water as we launched in the late afternoon. The shallow flats were calm and clear, perfect for what we had planned.
We focused on sight fishing and light tackle work in the shallows. The clear water conditions made it ideal for spotting fish cruising the flats. Butler Beach offers some of the best shallow water fishing opportunities, especially when you can work the grass beds and sandy pockets with lighter gear. We didn't stick a trophy on this run, but every cast and minute on the water was worth it.
