According to anglers posting in a local fishing group, the salmon bite on the Little Bitterroot Lake is slow, but the trout are hitting around 15 to 20 feet. If you’re heading out, try glow-in-the-dark jig heads with some worms for the best luck. Just be prepared to trek through over a foot of snow—because Bitterroot isn’t making it easy. And fair warning… recent reports have been a bit on the “sour” side, so keep those expectations in check!
