I went clamming here with my grandfather and his old friend about 4 or 5 years ago. I had to get up at like 5 AM to beat the tide, and we dug for a good while and filled two buckets good, only to wash the clams off in the freezing cold ocean side of the beach. I wanna do it all over again some day

Thank you Tom for posting this video. I lived in Duxbury from 1977-1987 and loved going to the beach there both on the "bay side" and the "ocean side". I will be showing this video to my kids as I want them to one day visit Duxbury and venture out into the bay at dead low tide.

Liked the demo alot Keep it up.You also educated the viewers about the reason we have laws and you did not try to scare everyone off the beach break.You showed the inspectors are there for our future---GREAT JOB

Man, I miss New England. No place like it on Earth. Florida seafood is a far cry from the seafood up there. One day, I'm going to come back home.

Tell me that on the first day of a Nor'easter here near Duxbury. Florida's seafood may not be as good as in New England, but I'll take Florida's weather any day over NE. I do know how hot it gets in FL in the summer, and I also know how cold it gets in New England in the winter. I'm a summer person.

60 years ago we would go out in boston whalers to powder point and wait for the tide to drop. $3.50 @ bushel
