I was introduced to fly angling late, winding down from an academic medical career and just as covid-19 hit. It’s been a godsend to have this new preoccupation and I owe much to you and the team for all I’ve learned! It’s been a smooth transition to another venue for continuous learning (as Trevor will certainly understand!).

Thanks, guys!

The passion and obsession come early, and before you even realize it, fishing isn’t just something you do, it becomes a part of who you are. The turning point for me was passing up a promotion because it would have interfered too much with my time on the water. It was the first time anything besides family and living location had factored into a career decision. In the work-life balance equation, fishing became a crucial new variable. I’m grateful for that, and I’m grateful to have a few spaces, including the Troutbitten Project, as a home and refuge for like-minded anglers. Rock on Dom and company!

Great article. I have thought about this for some time and I agree 100% with the fact that the dedicated few anglers that are deeply committed to life on the water do recognize and find kinship with each other. As a proud veteran, I find fly fishing friends with our troutbitten mindset to be the closest brotherhood to my time in the service.

The shared passion, dedication to self improvement and the willingness to help others out when called upon are something I treasure. Glad to have found you and the crew…can’t wait for our next trip later this year…and of course the awesome winter trip! I hope it is just as cold as last year…and just as epic.

Mike
