Flow: Average flows
Hatches: BWOs and some Mahogany Duns
Comments: The lower river is offering a good afternoon dry fly option right now and should hold up over the next couple of weeks. Nymphing as been relatively strong through the riffles and holding water as well. More Info

Flow: Slightly below average fall flows
Hatches: BWOs
Comments: If you're not chasing elk, the fishing on the Bitterroot has been excellent and will continue to offer as good of a late fall option as we have until things really get cold. You should have the place to yourself. Good afternoon dry fly action on the Baetis. Streamers maybe and nymphs for sure will give you an alternative if you can't find the heads. More Info

Flow:
Hatches: October Caddis, Baetis, Streamers
Comments: Streamer anglers might find some action here and there before winter takes its grip. You can expect to still find the occasional afternoon sipper on mayflies. Nymphing will remain strong until we move into the winter season. More Info

Flow: 300 CFS
Hatches: BWOs, Nymphs, Streamers
Comments: Its fall conditions up here at this point with cold water and the best fishing in the afternoon with a little dry fly window on the good days. Nymphing is consistent. Fish will be moving into their winter lies over the next few weeks. Streamer fishing continues to give you a decent shot at some larger fish. More Info
