Some of Bitterroot Trout Unlimited’s projects & activities
Bitterroot Buggers
Bitterroot Trout Unlimited has a wonderful youth fly fishing program called Bitterroot Buggers. Bitterroot Buggers is a series of classes designed to educate children in the art of fly fishing and fly tying. The program usually begins in January and is open to children 9-15 but they will take younger kids if they exhibit good dexterity and a willingness to participate. Contact Bill Bean (406) 363-6158 for more information.
