Fishing is a story . .

Nothing beats a good streamer bite. As much as we all love fishing dry flies and nymphs, nothing compares to actively fishing streamers and watching trout attack the fly. In early November, I found good streamer action in some favorite water. The takes were spotty enough that I had to work for them, but frequent enough that I could learn the preferences of the trout and dial in a presentation.

I fished three shifts, covering different parts of the river. And as most any day with streamers goes, trout had their moments . . .

Here’s the video . . .

Fish and Film — Home Waters – Terrestrial Dries and Terrestrial Nymphs (VIDEO)

, ,

Fishing is a story . . . On a summer morning of fishing, I fish terrestrials in two different ways — first as a dry fly and then as a nymph.

The concepts of terrestrial fishing are largely centered around the dry fly. And I show that in the first half of this video. Target the edges and fish some of the middle stuff along the way. But the terrestrial fishing mindset — the concepts and strategies — are effectively taken over to a nymphing rig as well, often producing more and larger trout.

My friends and I don’t go fishing with our mind set on a certain tactic. We let the trout make those decisions, and we’re ready for anything. The Troutbitten Standard Mono Rig is the perfect tool for such an approach.

. . . It’s a versatile tool. It’s a hybrid system. And to maximize those options, simple adjustments are necessary. This video shows those adjustments in detail . . .

Fish and Film — One Morning For Versatility (VIDEO)

Fishing is a story . . . On a cool morning in August, I visited a favorite stretch of Class A water, with no plan but to see what the trout wanted to eat. In a few hours of fishing for wild trout, I fooled fish with nymphs, dry flies and streamers. This versatile approach is not only enjoyable, it’s often necessary. Because meeting trout on their own terms is the only way to make the most of a river. Cover water. Find feeding fish. Test theories . . . every day.

The Troutbitten Fish and Film series is here. Fishing is a story. It’s the woods and the water. It’s the trout, and the rivers that draw us streamside. And at its best, good fishing is a mystery to be solved with observation, theory and technique.

The new Fish & Film series from Troutbitten aims to tell that story.

True All-Purpose Leader — The Harvey Gold

The Harvey Gold has the heart of the Harvey Dry leader, with a little more heft in the butt section and a piece of Gold Stren for a short sighter. The system allows for the quick swap of tippet sections, each specifically built for the river conditions, making this a truly modular leader without sacrifices (almost) . . .

    Hi Dom,

    Watching you execute a double head-flip, a stop, flip and stall finally registered with me. These films on the water are great. Thanks for the content. Also, I never get to see the background music credits… Is that also you on your ‘day off’????
    Happy Thanksgiving the you, the family and your extended team.

    It looks like you had the line wrapped around the rod? ??

    Happy holidays to you and your family, Dom!

    I was having trouble visualizing how your rod movements caused the head-flip until I searched for “streamer head flip” knowing that I’d find content. Sure enough, I found the specific video and your key comment that the best, if not only, time to effect a head turn easily is when the streamer is across from you, not upstream or downstream. Then it clicked and I got it…the video showing the streamer floating slowly also helped to illustrate how the head turns without moving the streamer through the water. Bingo!

    Thanks, as always!
