RT If I am thinking of the same church, by the bridge between Hamilton and Darby, its still there. I don't think the bitterroot you remember is as nice as the one we have now. I take that back, the river is actually a better fishery than it was 10 or 15 years ago however it must rank as one of the most fished rivers in the western half. When I take my boys for a cast and swim day I drive a little west of town to some more secluded streches of river. The guys that pay to fish the Bitterroot in the summer look alittle distressed when they see kids swimming in a nice deep fishing hole. I've been threatening to visit the koot but have yet to make it up there. maybe next year.
