: Bitterroot River: GREAT skwala fishing is here! Lots of fish are looking up in the heat of the day. If you see risers that won't eat your skwala try a small (18 or 20) adams, BWO, haze...etc. Nymph fishing has been very good in the a.m. Worms and dark stonefly nymphs will get the job done. This South to North flowing river gets the most direct sunlight in the area, making it consistantly your best late winter/spring fishing rivers. Hatches: Skwala's Fly Patterns: san juan worms, copper johns, pheasant tails, size 20 - 22 midges Reported by: The Grizzly Hackle |
