I'm glad you enjoy them as much as I do. Between Sam, yourself and myself we can eat some steamers in a hurry.

Hello thitesmarantz welcome! Thanks for the nice comments, I love seafood also. Have a great weekend! Cheers Edman

Hello Big A, come up with Lauren and we will go diggin!

Hello Uniquelyyours!! thanks for coming along clamming with me. Peace, love and a peck full of hugs, haha two great ones back to back. Thanks for making me smile. I hope you are having a great summer! Cheers Edman

Hello MrFindoc, I'm not sure what the sediment is formed from, good question. Now I'm on a mission to find out, thanks for the interesting question and the generous comment. Where in Canada are you located?

I am on Lake Huron. MUCH different type of water than yourself.. mine is freshwater.... no class, mussels, crabs, etc. Just pan fish in very shallow, sandy water. Grand Bend, Ontario.

We used to live at the lobster pound in Bremen. My husband worked at the pound, and we used to get clams and lobster and such all the time even dig enough for a mess. These Fishman work hard to harvest these for our consumption

@@virginiaquintal Hello virginiaquintal. welcome, thanks for watching and the comment. I have complete respect for how hard the entire trade of fishermen work. From deckhand to retail none of it is easy. Have a great Sunday!!

@@homesteadedman4784 my brother-in-law is a fisherman in Waldoboro He does it all from clamming to lobstering to eeling

Hello Brian, I think they issue a total of 75 permits, my guess is that only half of the people actually ever go or know where to go. But I did see 3 guys leaving that were just coming off the flats with their legal limits. I used to duck hunt there back in the tidal area 30 years ago and see nobody at all, now It's a very popular duck hunting spot. I hope you are having a great 4th!!

Hi virginiaquintal. I agree, if I were to sell them, I'd charge double what the fish market gets. ha-ha. I usually try and make someone's day by gifting them steamers. It has worked out quite well for me. I have received Venison, both Deer and Moose, Scallops, and homemade chili as thank you for the steamers. Please consider subscribing Virginia, we'd love to have you in our community. It's a beautiful summer day in southern Maine today, I hope it' the same where you are located. Cheers Edman

@@homesteadedman4784 I am actually in etna Maine We lived here for more than 30 years. I’m originally from the Waldoboro area .

And I have dug clams for a living when I was younger I used to pick crab meat during the summer for a local fisherman out of Bristol

My son does metal detecting. He has a KZfaq channel too, but he also does deer, moose and bear for Kenny’s cut in Palmyra Maine.

Virginia, you have more knowledge and skills on these things then I do.

@@m5s2e6 Hello m5s2e6, welcome. Thanks for the nice comment and the question. A peck is usually 12 pounds, the size of the clams determines the amounts so it will vary. Next peck I dig I will count them. Have a great day! Cheers Edman

15 lbs

@@heathgenthner4189 15 lbs. Hey thats better than 12 lb. Thanks Heath!

Southern Maine.

A "smart" fisherman NEVER gives out "his spot" ..... 😉

@@esousa486 I may have told him if he said something other than just, What town is this? Doesn't matter they only give out 75 permits and only 15 are for out of towners. People sleep in their vehicles to get a chance for a permit. Thanks for the comment esousa!
