    Awesome way to Spend a day!

    Great trip for any family. Andrew was awesome with the kids and made sure they knew what to do and helped them any time they needed. Loaded up on crabs and clams! Must do for any family wanting to get out and try something different.

    A must for kids!

    This trip was perfect our family (3 kids ages 8, 6, and 4). Andrew is super down to earth and great with the kids. We found lots of clams and crabs. The kids will be talking about this trip for months. I cannot recommend it enough!

    Great Captain!

    Captain George is a great guy! If you have young kids he takes the time to explain everything to them and couldn’t be more patient with questions that come up. We crabbed and clammed, both experiences were awesome! We will be using him again.

    Plenty of fun with George!

    We had a blast! Went inshore fishing, crabbing and clamming in one morning trip. George will inform you wel and tell interesting stories about the surroundings and his life. Good boat and equipment

About Clam fishing

Size

Food Value
Excellent
Game Quality
None

'Clam' is the general name for countless different species of mollusc. They're a traditional part of many countries' cuisines. As well as being popular at the dinner table, Clams are a go-to bait for many different fish species, from Redfish and Flounder to Stripers and Seabass. 

 
Clams may be small, but they live a surprisingly long time. Even the ones in your local fish market could be over 30 years old. Some species are known to live for centuries! 

When & Where?

Clamming is a popular pastime all along the East Coast, usually harvesting Atlantic Surf Clams. They're not just in the US, though. Clams are an important harvest all over the world, from Italy to India and beyond. Clam season is at its best in the summer. Head down to the beach at low tide and get some!
 

How to Harvest Clams

Clams are usually harvested by digging in muddy tidal waters. This can be a fun way to pass the day if you don't mind getting dirty – kids love it. All you really need it a shovel and a bucket, but serious Clamdiggers (or Clammers, as they're sometimes called) also use waders and specialist tongs, hoes, or nets to make things easier.

Taste Good?

Absolutely! From Clam chowder to spaghetti alle vongole, these delicious shellfish make for one of the tastiest sauces out there. And the best thing is that if you don't like them, there are plenty of fish out there that do!
