That is almost certainly a female with her cubs, not a "he."

The solo bear in the river is a male. He was chased into the river by a female with cubs. The other pictures are females with cubs.
Late fall before hibernation is pretty safe. The bears are fat and lazy. I try to make a bit of noise so I don't surprise them, but I guess you're always taking a chance fishing so close to bears. Problem is the bears hang out in the same place as the big fish!
