clamming
« on: March 25, 2009, 04:40:21 PM »
I read that friday;sat.sunday morning there will be clamming. I live in grayland and the ocean is rough. If you want to find out about the weather here or the swell height there is a really good web site to look on. Go to fvstteresa.net click on links then look under washington if you want to see the swell height go to grays harbor wave rider it will give you the swell . Click on NWS forcast and it will give you a weather forcast with wind direction and speed. Right now it looks like a 10 foot swell friday morning and 16 foot sarurday and 14 on sunday make sure and bring tall boots and extra cloths.

Surf perch would be fun, but we'll probably be at Copalis. Where is a good place to go for the surf perch?

my wife and I took a little trip to Ocean shores back in Feb or whenever the last clam dig was. We didn't even know there was a dig going on, we just booked randomly trying to get one last trip in before the baby comes and by chance... it was clam season! so we bought our gear there and have been dying to go back every since. Tons of fun :)

I fly out of Spokane tonight, I will be out there Saturday and Sunday, have a condo for the week at Ocean Shores. We will be claming out in front of all the resorts to the South of them actually. We always seen to get out limits there. I know there are better spots but I can drive to these ones without walking.

Just look for the big guy with the black hunting-washington hoodie on the beach with a three year old little girl and a silver jeep. Oh ya the one limping around too...  :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

South end of Long Beach Sat. & Sun for my wife and I.  Looks like it could be ugly tomorrow.  Having to work today sucks.

I just talked to Teacherman and looked at Pictures over my phone.  He didn't get a start until low tide today but took a nice limit.  He said he has lots of pictures and when he gets back he will share. :IBCOOL: :IBCOOL:
I've slowed down enough in my old age to finally let the game catch up to me

Just got done cleaning my limit and was dissappointed in the size of the clams!  Went to Roosevelt beach and after 400 plus miles round trip, will wait for the next lower tide than today's.  Surf conditions didn't help either, all in all was a good trip!  Anyone else have trouble finding nice size clams?

Well teacherman just called me and there group limited on clams again today.  Most of them where around 6 inches and a few 4" clams appeared but his wife got one that was about 11 inche.  I didn't even know they got that big.  I wonder what method they would use to mount that thing for a wall mount. :drool:
