Grabbing a Big Wet Clam (11/13)
« on: November 15, 2016, 09:06:08 AM »
Well, with the help of some friends, I got some secret intel on some clam beds and met them for a quick harvest.  I worked a big swath of beach for only a couple of small clams that I put back but finally saw secret agent #1 and #2  who called me over to the mother lode.

Clam Beach.



Clams abound.



Limits of Clams for Hannah and I.





That is all.

Clams Casino, Stuffed Clams, NE Clam Chowder, and Fried Clam Po' Boys are on the menu here!

Wow, those are nice one's Tom...
Anyone else here ever done any geoduck diggin? How about razor clamming? My Grandpa used to let me tag along with him many years ago. Don't know if there's still a fishery for them like there used to be.

Always a good idea to visually inspect the clam prior to eating it. :)

I've found some small ones in the past, just picked them up and threw them further out so no one would mess with them.

There's still a few productive spots in SD. I use my feet to find them when the tide isn't low enough.
