View Full Version : Get a clamming license OR buy clams? Jersey_Jim 05-13-2011, 04:37 AM I am thinking of clamming in Duxbury, but how much clamming will I actually do?? Are there places to buy cherrystones,etc reasonably $$ by the bag or peck. when I am in FL I can buy a bag of 100 for $23 robc22 05-13-2011, 07:08 AM Try harvester seafood in B.bay or joe's in sandwich....you might get cherries for .23 a piece........Northern hardshell product tends to be more expensive than southern shellstock.....

The difference between southern clams and northern clams are night and day. Like putting an Appalachicola oyster next to a Wianno oyster. No comparison.

My favorite oysters are North West (Washington, Oregon). They have a sweetness to them unlike the ones around here. l.i.fish.in.vt 05-13-2011, 08:03 PM sort of like asking should i go fishing or just buy some fish. i like to clam,so i would buy a license and enjoy tide clamming,you would be surprised what you will learn about fishing clamming.if you just want to pig out on clams justbuy them.if you are a some who knows there clams the best are from the northeast.the clams from down south don't have the shelf life of northern clams.

The COST of gas to get to and from the holes would buy a reasonable amount of clams unless your going to a drinking hole then it would be worth the trip.
