The Bitterroot

Dry Fly Capital of Montana

The Bitterroot

A north-flowing freestone starting just south of Darby and feeding the Clark Fork in Missoula. Over 75 miles of fishable water and world-class dry fly hatches from March through November — skwalas, March browns, salmonflies, PMDs, hoppers, hecubas. Every month brings something new and even seasoned anglers can't get enough.
