Fishing thus far this spring has been eventful! Have some pics below from my favorite catches and some comments on the sesh. Who said flats boats don't belong in the Northeast!! Man, that is just cool. I remember bringing my flats boat up the the mountain lakes of Virginia and getting funny looks. Flats boats make great platforms anywhere! Nice fish, I have always wanted to experience those shallow water striper! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard work finding those big ones in shallow but much more rewarding and cooler environments than fishing the deep reefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah not that common up here, been asked too many times if the poling platform is an "engine hat/cover" 😆 The shallow water game is awesome, absolute best when conditions align and you find them on the sand flats... rivals Bahamas in clarity with sometimes difficult-to-feed fish! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistaflyfish Posted July 12 Report Share Posted July 12 Amazing man. Looking into getting a hewes and live up in North NJ but Come up to CT often and am a die hard fly fisherman. If you have a free day this season to take a fellow fly fisherman out I’d like to see how it handles/fishes. Hit me up on insta @Mistaflyfish . Tight lines.

I just had a baby tho so my fishing time is basically nonexistent but this would be a good excuse to get out there. I'll message you on instagram.
