Fly Fishing the Bitterroot River in October with Jack

October 21, 2009

Fly fishing the Bitterroot River in the fall is fantastic. The weather changes dramatically during the day giving stellar lightshows and the fall hatches mean you will probably see fish noses and fins in select places. As the trout work the hatch, It is definitely a [...]

A nice fall day fly fishing the Bitterroot with Richard and Jack

October 17, 2009

After a cold spell, there was this very nice day in October. Richard and Jack fished the middle to lower Bitterroot and the fish were very cooperative. The water is very clear and flat.
