All fishers are not created equal

Just as all grizzly bears are not the same size or the same colours not all have the same ability when it comes to catching salmon.  The fall viewing area on Knight Inlet’s Glendale River has an abundance of pink salmon and this attracts the bears.  The estimated of grizzly salmon consumption runs from 40 to 100 pounds in a day depending on the size of the bear.  Even if you take a low number of fifty pounds considering the pink salmon average weight are 3.5 to 4 lbs. They still need at least 12 to 15 fish a day to fatten for the winter. Bigger bears allot more.  Bears fishing for salmon is not a hobby it is a lifestyle.
