Butler Beach Backcountry Action - Family-Friendly Florida Flats

Non-stop bites all day long! Shrunga and I headed out for some late afternoon backcountry fishing down in Florida during fall. Clear skies greeted us at Butler Beach, though we knew afternoon rain was coming our way. Water conditions looked perfect for what we had planned - cruisin' the flats in true gator country style!

With our gear rigged and ready, we focused on sight fishing and light tackle techniques throughout the backcountry waters. Florida's backcountry is perfect for this style of fishing because the shallow flats and mangrove maze provide ideal conditions for drift fishing when the tide's rollin' in. We didn't stick a trophy on this run, but every cast and minute on the water was worth it. We wrapped up just as those afternoon clouds moved in, but had a blast working the area!
