Bitterroot Fishing Report – 7/12


L-BR-5-1-L-9

The flow drop on the Bitterroot is consistent at this point, and the upper stretches of the river have been turning out some really nice dry fly days. The Bitterroot stones aren’t far off, and the caddis and yellow sallies have been pretty reliable. For dries, use golden stones, PMDs, green drakes, and other attractor patterns. For nymphs, use pheasant tails, caddis pupae, scuds, small micro stones and Pat’s rubber legs. For Streamers use dark bodied buggers and sculpin patterns.
