It's almost time for the fall fishing season to begin for the commercial seiners and gilnetters. They fish for chum salmon right outside the harbor, and also do some fishing in Hoods Canal. Some of the skippers will take their boats out 2 days in advance and drop anchor to get the first set at their favorite spot each opening with the crew going out in the skiff the night before the opening. If I had to sit on anchor for more than a few hours, I'd have to be taken off to the funny farm.
