Billy Bitzer is best remembered as D. W. Griffith's longtime cameraman, but when Griffith showed up in the studio, Bitzer was a well-established cameraman, probably Biograph's best -- which was probably why he was assigned to Griffith, to teach the stage actor the technical side of the movies.
Here he takes the audience on a fishing expedition to the Rangeley Lakes, six bodies of water in eastern Maine that were then as now well known for the excellence of trout fishing. We get to watch the expedition get off the train, go into their cabins, and emerge the next day for a try at the fish. It's nicely edited to make a day's worth of angling, and if I knew more about the sport, this movie might interest me more.
