Fly Fishers of the Bitterroot
October 3, 2023 @ 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM
Fly Fishers of the Bitterroot monthly meetings start again in October! The group will meet Tuesday, October 3, at BJ’s Restaurant, in Hamilton at 5:30 p.m. for a social hour. Dinner/Drinks are optional. The program begins at 7:00 p.m. This month’s featured speaker is Mike McTee of the MPG Ranch in Western Montana. His program title: “Lead Exposure in Wildlife.” Mike works as a wildlife researcher and caught eagles suffering from alarming levels of lead exposure. He began investigating the wound ballistics of rifle bullets, the suspected source of lead exposure. His research has appeared in numerous wildlife and environmental journals. Mike will touch upon the use of lead in fishing as well. If you are interested in the sport of fly fishing, then this social club is for you! Anyone is invited and no club dues until January.
