Clammer!

I generally refrain from offering unsolicited advice to friends, but I continually wonder why so many friends spend so much effort at clamming.  They put out decoys, dress up in camouflage and hip boots, and sit around in blinds using clam calls.  Then when they spot one they have to race to the clam and dig furiously, hoping to reach the clam before it escapes and potentially risking injury to backs and limbs.

I’ve found a much easier way to go about collecting clams, and you don’t have to worry about a license or bag limits.  You visit eBay and buy yourself a “clammer”.  The good ones will bring the clams back to a bucket while you recline along the beach and enjoy a margarita.

Here’s a photo of my “clammer”… which, I might add, is a former State champion.  I had to pay a little more, but you can’t underestimate the value of a really good clammer!
