The Bitterroot is sitting at 1400cfs at Bell Crossing. The clarity is good. The Skwala's are still pretty dormant (for now) but the fish are starting to look up. We have seen Skwala adults here and there, but it should turn on here any day now. For top water patterns use a rogue Skwala, bullet head Skwala, Amy's ant, Flush Floater, or a Double Dutch Bug. The March browns should start showing up as well. Pheasant tail parachutes, D&D cripples, and Flick's March brown are all good choices. It'll take till mid afternoon for it to warm up. Start out fishing sub surface. Underneath use pheasant tails, olive double beaded stones, epoxy back March brown nymphs, Pat's rubber legs, little black Sloan's, and micro stones.

HATCHES/Flies: Midges, March Browns, BWO, Skwalas
