I don't fish much with clams anymore but in NY they have a purple clam that stinks to high hell and it works great for bass. We use to chum with clam bellies and drift back these stink clams as bait. They were deadly. I know NY exports the bait up here but it is a little pricey. The purple is from the mud it is in, as far as I know it is just a regular chowder calm but it is well seasoned in this stinky mud which seems to work. It also is pretty tough and stays on the hook like a pork rind.
