Streamer Fishing Bite Windows
This post is from contributing author, Pat Burke. In fly fishing, bite windows are a period of time when fish are keyed in and are extremely willing to take an offering. For an eastern dry fly fisherman, a prime bite window would be the last hour of daylight in late...
Two Days in the Deep Freeze
I spent most of the last two days in, on and around it, partially covered and burdened by it; and breaking, chipping and melting it --- ICE. I've fished the single digit temps a handful of times before, but it's been a while since I've had that chance, so when I read...
Locked Up
This post is from contributing author, Pat Burke. Lately life has been busy and I’ve had trouble finding time on the water. I did make it out for a morning last weekend to enjoy one of the warmer days we’ve had. Dom and I talked about locations to fish and we...

Welcome to Troutbitten.
Since 2014, I’ve published over 1000 stories, commentaries, tips, tactics and reviews.
As the Troutbitten Project has grown branches, these articles continue to be the heart and soul of my work. Some of these writings are organized in series form, where a group of articles reads like chapters in a book.

Thanks for being here, and thank you for your support. Fish hard, friends.

PODCASTS
The Troutbitten Podcast launched in the fall of 2021, and it quickly became the most popular independent fishing podcast on the charts.
While in season, the podcast publishes once a week, and there are four seasons each year.
Troutbitten Podcasts seasons follow two formats.
In the first format, a full panel of my best fishing friends covers a topic in the wide world of fly fishing for trout. These free-form episodes with the Troutbitten crew are uniquely entertaining and deeply informative.
In the second format, my friend, Austin Dando, joins me to break down one specific topic in a multi-episode exploration of advanced tactics. These seasons are part of the Troutbitten Skills Series.

TROUTBITTEN VIDEOS
The Troutbitten YouTube Channel began in 2017. But I took it to the next level in 2020, by partnering with my friend, Josh Darling of Wilds Media, to film a video that is still one of my favorites — The River Doesn’t Owe You Anything.
In 2022, Josh and I committed to publishing every other week, and I’m excited to bring his artistic and deeply professional video production to some of the ideas and stories that I’ve wanted to share for years.
Troutbitten videos currently feature the Tips Series, Fly Fishing the Mono Rig Series, and Gear Reviews. Who knows what’s coming next . . .
