Fish rising on the Bitterroot River near Tucker Crossing
Here are some rise patterns. I was at Tucker Crossing hanging out when I saw the Osprey near a pool on the edge of the Bitterroot River. Some trout were working the edge near the foam. They weren’t very big, but fun to watch.
Fly Fishing the Clark Fork River near Superior, MT
Yesterday Jack fished with clients that wanted to do a stretch on the Clark Fork River near Superior. It fished, although not as well as they might have liked. Here are a few of the fish they caught. The lighting is a bit bright but you get the idea of the size and species from the photos. It was a bright day and a bit windy, too.
If you are a fan of the Clark Fork River and the cleanup project you will want to put this on your calendar.
