UNDERWATER REFLECTIONS > The abundance of salmon attracts many fly-fishermen, and the bears seem totally uninterested in them. The fishermen, however, are bound by the same 50-yard rule as other visitors, so anytime a bear comes within 50 yards, they must group together and back away until the bear leaves. If they have a fish on the line when a bear starts towards them, they must immediately cut the line to avoid bears learning that fishermen=fish.

UNDERWATER REFLECTIONS > These two big males occupy the two "prime" spots atop the Falls, and tolerate each other's presence so close only because both spots are so productive.   That salmon in his mouth is roughly two feet long and weighs about ten pounds.
