Dave and Steve (& Chas & Willi), Just found time to look at all the pix
at leisure. Very good stuff. Thanks.

Papa Bear Floaters: other than packing heat, what precautions did you all
take for bears?

It seemed that the silvers were a mix of bright chromers and dark fish.
Is that the case? If so, what was the approximate proportion of each
would you say? How was the fight of these fish, compared, say, to the
fight of a fresh steelhead of the same size?

(thinking the chances of a $1500+airfare trip to Alaska is a lot more
likely ever to happen than a $6000 one....)
