7/20 Crabbing and Clamming.....
 

Moved the rig for a change of pace to Barney bay. NOT familiar at all with the area but extended family was down for the week and joined em.

Crabbing was flat out.....lights out. Little lull in the hi sun mid day but pretty consistent thru the tide change. Tons of shorts and females but weeded thru em to put a solid catch of jimmies together. Snappers are about 4” right now. Jellies huge problem around the docks but open water clear.

Decided in the afternoon to clam. Never did it. Log onto NJ DFG and download $10 permit and map and had at it.

After taking some paint off my Yammie skeg we had the kids digging in their heels. Cool stuff!

Btw. Greenheads suck!!!

Nice report...great job im sure the kids loved it!

Re: 7/20 Crabbing and Clamming.....
 

Nice ! Many different types of clam rakes on the market these days. Would shy away from bare feet and hands as a chunk of glass or metal could ruin your whole day. And yes, Greenheads suck !!!

Whoever discovered this is either a madd scientist or just plain madd!

Skin,-so-soft is well known but mixing it with Scope. Cleaver

Greenheads have a savage bite!! Sucks so bad

Re: 7/20 Crabbing and Clamming.....
 

Just wear a sun block style shirt with long sleeves , that’s the best to keep them from biting you.
