Topsfield Flats: Sight Fishing & Poling the Shallows This Spring

Steady action throughout the day. Yash and I headed out for an afternoon spring session under partly cloudy skies. The conditions were wicked good for what we had planned on the flats. We dragged bait through some prime shallow water spots around Topsfield, and I have to say, lines tight became our motto for the day.

Once the stage was set, we focused on sight fishing and poling through the shallows. The shallow water casting worked perfectly in these conditions, and Topsfield's flats fishing really showed why this area is so productive. The water was slicked out, making it ideal for spotting our targets. We wrapped up the trip with great time and smiles all around, no suh!
