Announcements | The Troutbitten Podcast

 The Troutbitten Podcast is available everywhere that you listen to your podcasts.

** Note **  The Podcast Player, along with links to your favorite players is below.

Here’s a story about the solitude that so many of us seek on the water — how the full experience of planning for a trip, driving before dawn, walking in and exploring a river valley provides a respite from our daily life. It’s a chance for a clear mind and for renewed energy. “The Further You Walk, the More You Leave Behind” is about what we recover when we commit to full days and long distances, and how even after we return, we are changed.

In this episode I also share information about the New Trail Troutibtten beer and the release event on June 29th.

I also announce the next Troutbitten Live Stream event on YouTube, which is Wednesday, June 5th at 8:00 pm, EST. Our guest is Tom Rosenbauer. Our topic is stocking and club water.

I also ask for emails to the Pennsylvania Fish Commission supporting their efforts to stop stocking over wild trout. Here is the information for that:

PODCAST: Why We Fish — S13, Ep6

PODCAST: Why We Fish — S13, Ep6

Tonight we’re here to talk about why we fish. It’s a simple question. Why do we commit so much of our free time and efforts, our thoughts and our daydreams . . . to fishing?

It’s the same natural pursuit that brought us all down to the water from the beginning.

PODCAST: Barbed Hooks or Barbless? Does It Really Matter? — S13, Ep5

PODCAST: Barbed Hooks or Barbless? Does It Really Matter? — S13, Ep5

Should we always fish barbless? Maybe not. The answer isn’t that simple. So the Troutbitten guys are here for a conversation and a few thoughts about barbs on hooks.

Each one of us has fished for long enough that we’ve used both barbed and barbless flies. We’ve also used barbs on lures and bait hooks, because we all grew up fishing in different ways. Some anglers who jump right into the fly fishing game — especially for trout — are exposed to a another sentiment. So their reference points are different. And like anything else, what might seem almost outlandish to one person can seem like no big deal to another.

PODCAST: Finding Your Confidence Flies — S13, Ep4

PODCAST: Finding Your Confidence Flies — S13, Ep4

Every angler needs a set of flies to call their own. Among the thousands of patterns, options and choices out there, eventually, we sort out a handful of confidence flies.

Our faith in these flies gives us conviction when choosing them and tying the knot. We’ll fish THIS fly in THIS water. That’s what will catch the next trout. And if it doesn’t, then we’ll change something — maybe the water type, maybe the presentation, maybe the rig. Or maybe we’ll reach for the next confidence fly.

What do you think?

    Good stuff. If this fishing thing doesn’t work out for you, I see a bright future in narrating audio books.

    Looking forward to the live stream. Should we voice our dislike of the H4 line not having a 4&5wt 10’ rod?

    Hi Domenick,
    You have a gift of story telling and a gift of gab, I love listing to your stories as I close my eyes and let you in my mind, keep up the great writing!
