[QUOTE="Don Titus, post: 2484411, member: 61851"] I fished for salmon in the King Salmon area of AK in 2018; we did a fly out trip for 24” Dolly Varden trout on a temple creek deep on brown bear country. We saw 13 brownies that day including several that were “fishing with us”. They were after the spawning salmon and we were fly fishing with fake salmon eggs. At times the beats were 50’ from us and they didn’t bother us at all. We were told not to make any big disturbance in the water or move quickly toward them. We had two guides, each carried bear spray AND one carried a .450 revolver on his chest, the other a .500. The part that scared me a bit was hiking a mile in and out from the fly in lake to the stream…we were wearing waders and the brush was shoulder high, so it sure felt like we were ripe for an ambush.
