dartmouth shellfishing

My wife loves gathering quohogs.....just enough for our own use...so I paid the $75 for a non-resident shellfishing license.......no map was provided to show where it is allowed. Looked online and found a map showing a spot ive gone to many times before to dig as "open". Still wasnt sure so I called the Harbormaster several times to check with him.....all I got was a recorded message saying if it was an emergency to cal 911. So we go ahead and start getting a few......and what do you know the harbormaster shows up in his skiff....and rudely informs us the area is closed and its a $100 fine each and that we should leave before he calls the police. I asked nicely ...where are the signs?...what area is open? and why does he not answer his phone?. He didn't like the questions......he seems like a real jerk. Rant over
