Butler Beach Flats: Northern Pike on Fly with Ray Chaters

One for the books today! Ray joined us this winter afternoon for some flats fishing action down in Florida waters around Butler Beach. Clear conditions throughout the day made for perfect visibility on the flats, and the water conditions at Butler Beach were just what we needed for our sight fishing approach. Ray Chaters had everything dialed in for this one!

With our gear rigged and ready, we focused on sight fishing and fly fishing techniques that work so well in these Florida flats. Ray picked up a solid Northern Pike using light tackle fishing methods that really shine in this type of water. The flats around Butler Beach are perfect for this style of fishing because the clear water lets you spot fish cruisin' the shallows before making your cast. We wrapped up the trip with great time and smiles all around, tight lines and bent rods made it memorable!
