From the beach to the fryer

Took my son clam digging for the first time and he is hooked....we had a blast...we both got our limits and came home cleaned them up and made some clam fritters 

For those of you that have never had clam fritters its a must try.
Grind up your limit of clams
Add 1-2 eggs with a splash of milk
Add a little flower with salt and pepper to taste and some diced onions for flavor...mix it up well...put some oil in a pan and take a little scoop and try to fry it....if it falls apart add a little more flower...you want them to stay together when friying otherwise its a mess

Looks like fun! Those fritters look real good!

Oh they were delicious...I forgot to take a pic when they were done...and they didn't last long

I've never been able to bring myself to do anything with razor's other than just breading them with ritz crackers and frying.  Probably one of my top three favor foods!  Sooooo gooooood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Fritter's look pretty good though, solid work

Thanks for sharing and thanks for sharing that experience with your son. Some of my best memories of childhood were when my dad took me out fishing.

The wife and I are going razor clamming for the first time this weekend. Hope the learning curve is short, cause we're hungry! Might go after some surf perch while we're in the right area, too.

[deerhunter_98520]

Winslow where are you goin digging? If your comin to the harbor for the Friday dig I could show ya so your learning curve is pretty small....there easy to get

With heavy rain predicted, diggins gonna be way tough. All that pounding rain and water on the beach. Clams dont like to show.
