Butler Beach Backcountry: Late Night Session with Suraj

One for the books today! Suraj and I headed out for a late night summer session around Butler Beach, with partly cloudy skies that turned into afternoon rain as we got going. Water conditions at Butler Beach were solid for our backcountry fishing adventure, perfect setup for what we had planned!

Once the stage was set, we worked through our arsenal with fly fishing, spin casting, and bait fishing techniques to cover all the angles. Butler Beach delivers year-round because you can switch between multiple approaches depending on what the fish want - that versatility keeps you in the game no matter the conditions. We didn't stick a trophy on this run, but every cast and minute on the water was worth it, and we wrapped up with great memories and plenty of laughs!

If you're thinking about getting out on the water around Florida NY, Butler Beach offers some of the most consistent backcountry fishing you'll find. The mix of techniques we use - from fly fishing the shallows to spin casting structure and working bait in the deeper pockets - gives us multiple shots at success throughout the day. Butler Beach backcountry fishing stays productive because we can adapt our approach based on conditions, tides, and what's moving. Whether you're new to the sport or looking to dial in your technique, our test jite trips let us customize the experience to match your skill level and target the species you want to chase. The late night and early morning windows can be especially productive here, and with the variety of water we can access, there's always a backup plan when conditions change!
