I hear people talk about being worried that walleye and smallmouth from Sulfer Creek Res. will go down streem and get into the Bear Lake. That's also the excuse used for not wanting perch etc. in the Narrows. However, if you will look at a map, google earth, or just drive up there and look, Bear River doesn't even run into Bear Lake. It actually run quite a ways down stream of it. A fish would have to swim upstream and then get through the spillway screening system. If I remember right there is a major drop from dam to river. I guess it could happen but it looked pretty impossible to me. [/reply]
