Various incidents along the Kalama River
Account
The witness was guiding two clients on a nighttime drift-boat trip at Beginner's Hole. After hooking something heavy that fought like a living animal, he watched it stand upright in the river about 30 feet below the boat, waist-deep with its arms moving as it worked free of the hook. After a few minutes it freed itself, dove underwater, and left a wake heading downstream without surfacing for about 100 yards.
