gillnetter

Bellingham, Washington

gillnetters like this, and trollers, are a significant part of the Squalicum Harbor fishing fleet, catching not only salmon but also halibut, herring, cod, and crab

Squalicum is a local native American word meaning 'place of the dog fish', which are also known as chum salmon
