There’s still some fishing to be done on the Bitterroot this week, and the weather forecast doesn’t look bad at all…..

They were somehow thinking we’re still throwing BWO dries all day long – at the most you’ll see rising fish for an hour or two in the afternoon, and you won’t be seeing them do that up and down the river for sure.
