Gus I have lived many years of my life eating shell fish in the Chesapeake bay and us old timers have done this for all our life's. I hope you enjoy the best things of my life for many years. Old Master Gunnery SGT USMC. I love you and your family . Semper FI.
For future reference..it is illegal to harvest Conchs in Florida - period. Have to go to the Bahamas for that. I know yall didn't know.
Thank you for saying that 7:02 no matter whether you're foraging for clams fishing spearfishing or taking anything else just take what you need, don't over do it or we will be left without or initiate a stiff downfall in certain species that may take decades to recover from if at all that may be possible.. Today those who abuse on one side and the lionfish on the other are making it difficult for certain species..
The little bit of purple in the clam shell was considered valuable by certain Northeastern Native American tribes. They'd made beads out of that small section and weave intricate belts/sashes using seaweed as twine. The more purple in the design, the more valuable it was. This early currency was commonly called Wampum.
Yes and Indigenous people made artifacts from them and oyster shell in coastal Florida as well.
interesting! thanks for the info
And used to make purple dyes most expensive back in the day
Matanzas clams to make Minorcan clam chowder. Awesome!
the "mother of pearl" purple stuff?
I used to go clamming with my dad when I was a kid in volusia county. We used to use rakes with long poles to save our backs and potato bags to keep the clams in and let them sit in the water while we find them. Also used to try and find very muddy grassy areas. Amazing part of my childhood that I’ll never forget! I haven’t done it since because i heard the waters are too polluted to eat them now 🤷♀️ but i would love to be out there again!
Hey Blue Gabe and Kelly. Hands down. Long Island Little Necks are the absolute best. The trick is let them soak in iced SALTY water for at least 5 hours. They will clean themselves and open easily I love you guys. ENJOY
We use stainless steel butter knife blade rakes here on Outerbanks of NC we also stomp clams with our feet n special vinyl coated socks. They slide across the bottom simple effective way to clam without killing your back. Kudos to all of U!!
C'MON Gabe your wrecking the lil clam. When shell pops open Clam is ready And Tender. Roll in clarified butter and chew the WHOLE THING GUTS AND ALL....
we get Little necks and cherry stones NY. Nice videos love it.
I love boat yourself this is Cole I could tell you some stories about claiming in Connecticut oh and the one thing you do is when you catch clams you purge amount so they don't you don't have like the San andretti stuff in your mouth and yes I eat them raw I eat them cooked I love oysters Rob and wiggly in yeah quahogs are usually good either in chowder you pop them under in a wheat grinder or anything and you make a stuffing with them and you keep the shelves then you make stuffed shells so thanks for the show man I love it 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗✌️👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I learned some clamming techniques probably 30 years ago when I was a kid. My stepfather and his brother sold clams commercially and I've never seen a single person collect the way they showed me. The way you guys did this video wasn't what I was expecting.
When I lived in N.C. I would go to the ICW hunt for little necks ,put them in clean sea water for 24 hours, to purge them ,fire up the grill and have a bottle of moma burn sauce and enjoy myself
Navy SH-60 Sikorsky, you can tell because the tail wheel is way forward under the tail. The Army UH-60 tail wheel is just beneath the horizontal stabilizer in the back.
I enjoy eating clams every way! Raw, steamed, baked stuffed clams, clams casino, clam chowder and clams with white sauce over linguini!!! One time years ago I ate at one sitting (76) steamed cherry stone clams dipped in butter. I just luv em!!!!!!!!!
Well Kelly nice to see Gabe when full childish and you handled it well. To be fair its what we(men) EXCELL at. Keep the vids coming Gabe, enjoying from Canada
birds like that bru love roe, they will talk more fluent, strengthens there eyes
as a kid we would go to San Felipe, Baja California for vacations, and with low tide we would go and collect clams, oysters, muscles and the sort, never knew what specific speicies of each, but fresh and by far the best i´ve ever had. my mom would steam the muscles and cook some clam spaghetti which was amazing, while dad and i would eat the clams mostly raw. pop open and down the chute! great memories! love the channel and have a great ´22!
“ over yonder” Kelly you’re sounding more Southern everyday! That’s a good thing!!
South of Kelly is? Cuba, man, lol.
my favorite clam is the long neck steamer you have to dig on a nice beach.
Horse neck clams are my favorite, the best way of eat them in my opinion is in chowder because it makes a very hardy chowder and meaty.
New England clam chowder and smoked oysters!,yummy
Fresh oysters, Texas Pete hot sauce, and good cold beer! Not a beer lover except for steamed oysters time!
grilled clam then raw is my favorite..dried clams are also awesome..all clams!!
On low heat Fry onions in a pot with butter till soft add in shelled clams and shelled muscles fry a lil then coconut cream when heated add curry powder to ur taste and then throw some prawns in (if prawns are raw throw in b4 coconut cream) make some home made bread with butter and walah just made me hungry 🤣🤣
These folks you're with are fun!
Something to try with clams - Get your grill or smoker going, place the purged clams directly on the grates. As soon as the clams begin to open hit the meat with a bit a bit of garlic butter, and leave them until the edged start to curl. They are ready to eat. The same works for oysters as well.
Washington state on the Puget sound
Butter clams (steamers) with garlic butter. we like the little ones the best.
I like the clam steam and with pico de gallo ummmmm delicious
The pink clams are my favorite!
small neck are the sweetest for me!
Bluegabe talking about favorite clam to eat and Kelly smiling on the side like she knows what his favorite clam to eat.😋😛
Beat me to it
Ceder key Florida, not sure if I’m behind but so amazing for clams!! Small town super cool
My all time favorite clam to eat, is the Bearded Clam!! You can find them on all 7 continents and I been eating them since I was 15.
LOL, Wow. No replies. That makes me wonder how many people actually know what you're talking about.
Hahaha my comment was the true pink clams we have here in Florida!
Just gotta watch out for the Red tide 😂🤣
@@boatingman11 That's because they're never bearded anymore. The bearded clam has met up with the razor clam.
Cracked me the hell up.👍
I’m an AMERICAN supporting BG and DMFD. We continue to fight for freedom and having fun in the outdoors.
Raw bearded clams is my favorite
Salt Run oysters are my favorite oysters for sure ! Clams are best in chowder for me.
My favorite clam to eat is the bearded clam...LOL
I love, love, love Clams on the half shell.
Mmmm used to get them out of the Shinnecock Canal in the Hamptons..
Crabbing, Clamping, Blue Fishing, and Getting Muscles all in one day.
We would just bring the grill, cook and eat our catch.. right there.
Thx for the reminder of the good Ole days.
Looking for to Getting out there and doing it again.
Cherrystone clams, steamed with butter. I also use them to make Manhattan Red chowder.
Razor clams are wonderful, geoduck are faboolus,too. Heck, they're all good
I love the little necks they're great for steaming and when you eat them raw you don't have this great big huge mouthful of raw clams, they're small and petite they are delicious and delicious
Excellent, glad ya gave clams and oysters another try.👍🏻👍🏻
Boom chicka wow wow😁😁
Steamed little necks dipped in butter the best
Bluegabe your hecka funny! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣Bow chicka wow wow 🤩 Yea! Kelly getting some tonight✊🏽Lol …
ever since i started watching Bluegabe video i have learnt so much from him.
I lived in Maine for a year in 1966. My grandfather was a commercial clam fisherman. We didn't get those quahog clams like you have shown. We were getting butter clams with paper thin shells. There was so much meat in them the shells did not touch when closed. I was 12 . I dug a half bushel of clams on a tide. He dug 3 full bushels, and he was in his 60's . I shucked the clams and we had about 3 half gallon zip-lock bags of meat. We ate them for weeks. I eat them raw, boiled, in soups, and fried. Oh, shout out to Bar Harbor, Maine, where I got the clams and my dads old stomping grounds.
Rockland,Maine here :)
I love butter clams they’re my favorite
Lived in Cherryfield ,Maine as a kid we used to get a couple clam basket full , it was hard work , but nothing taste better than some clams dipped in butter. I live in Florida now.
New Jersey kid here. Nothing better than a dozen top neck clams on the half shell doused with a little hot sauce and a 6 pack of ice cold miller lites in an aluminum bucket packed with ice in the summer
I just got back from fishing and didn’t cetch any thang so I had to watch one of your videos you are my favorite UA-camr
Steamed clams x 10 best ever
We watched yesterday. Cockle shell clams Crescent city CA. The best
Terrific adventure to the oyster and clam beds of Florida. Raw oysters and steamed quohog clams at the top of my food chain. If it swims crawls slithers in the ocean and you can eat it l will. You just don't want to sit next to me shucking oysters. With the shell fish l would put them in salt water till they stopped spitting mud in a day or so to clean them up.
Hi my name is Weston I met you at bass pro I hope to see you on our trip to miss Titisville for my birth day I hope y’all are doing great and having a great time
I never checked out a local foraging video until this one, maybe you should check out Fishlocker from the UK. That guy gives detailed instruction on the different varieties of shellfish and suggests that you purge your shellfish in clean saltwater at least 24 hours to clean the shellfish of sand and dirt from them. And he shows how to get razorclams with tablesalt. Just a suggestion.
For oysters use a $5.00, 4 inch concrete troll. Easily pry apart the oysters and gently scrape everything off. Easily save the next generation..
That was hilarious gabe saying you know what eatin oysters does makes you stand errect an frisky
Clam chowder is my favorite
Cherry stone clams and steamers with butter
Fun times for sure. Good friends, good food can’t ask for more!!!
Thank you
Favorite clam type: The bearded clam
Leave it in Gabe. It's flavor man
I like most every clam, mussel and oyster I ever tried. However, my favorite clams are New England steamers (soft shelled clams). My next favorite is deviled clams (southern quahogs) on the half shell. My best friend's mother used to make them when I was a kid growing up in SW Florida.
Fried clam strips. I always love to se everyone getting their kids involved. So many kids are lost in video games now days
Butter, garlic, clams over linguine 👍🙏🏻
Razor clams!!! To me the best thing to come out of the ocean.
My fav chowder is sheet crab topped with old bay
Up northin New Jersey and parts of NY we love our softshell steamer clams. Some call the piss clams because the eject a small stream of seawater. Anyway they are delicous dipped in butter. They are steamed in a little water and as soon as the top shells opens, turn off the heat. Reserve the water and use it to dip the clams into prior to dipping in melted butter. I haven't had oysters in years. I wont eat them raw, but fried in butter as I had them when I was in Reedsport Oregon, they were delicious.
60 years ago nothing but raw cherry clams with hot sauce. Now steamed with muscles and white wine.
Pink fish I go pink fishing all time
Sweet Alaskan Razor Clams are my fav, so yummy!!! Been digging and eating them for almost 50 years!!
I'm here in Northern Australia. Here we have Pipies and razor clams that we get at the beach and mangrove clams in the mangroves. Lots and lots of ways to make these delicious....in Sweet chilli scauce, beer and scallions, or in a sugro with chilli and triple smoked ham. Red curry over rice. In a creamy sauce with smoked salmon and broccoli over pasta. In a tomato based seafood stew over polenta.
New England long neck steamers...the best
My fav is New England "steamers" with melted garlic butter. So good.
My favorite Clams are Little Necks and I love them Raw with a drop of Worcestershire Sauce and Frank's RedHot.
Littlenecks are the best steamers (steamahs!) usually not very sandy, and very meaty. dip in broth, then dip in butter. I can eat pounds!
I enjoy watching your videos keep them coming and be safe out here peace to you
Seattle are Manila Clams steamed in clam nectar, wine ,celery ,onion garlic and butter . Then dipped in garlic butter .
Geoduck ceviche .
We have delicious razer clams in Oregon
Wonderful video Gabe, of course the lovely & talented Miss Kelly Young is always a major addition to your adventures! She's your main stay.
Her boots & your water shoes were definitely needed in that mud! Good job.
BTW: the helo passing over head is the
"Sound of Freedom...!" Never forget that!
Awaiting your next segment!
"Keep on keepin' on" y'all! 👍 😎 🤙
We used to steam and grill the cherrystones and little necks down at my Dad's place in Brunswick County, NC years ago. I love them just as much as oysters. The larger ones we'd use to make chowder. A good chowder needs some salt pork in it, and I like potatoes and onions in mine. Clear broth for me. Some people use milk. I don't care for that as much.
Beardless clam
Best episode you have ever done. Awesome you meet outstanding people and learn.
Cherrystones or Littlenecks from Long Island Sound. Steamed and served with melted butter.
Tell your buddy I will come do his electrical for a fishing trip,I live local and love to see you fishing in my favorite little spot when you never come up this way.
Tug_trash , his name is Ian
@@BluegabeArrington thank you
@@BluegabeArrington I have also caught a couple of 7 footers off of that pier y’all launched from and it is a hot spot for the string rays too. A buddy and I have caught some nice 3-5 footers trying to catch some bottom feeders like drum and bull reds passing thrue.
👍 The german counting ist perfekt 👍
Another great video! I look forward to them every week. Glad to see you and Kelly together. Great couple.
Bow Chica Wow Wow 🤣🤣🤣
Yes bring on Anthony !
love all cook them any way love the spice
I was a dock operator at Velero Refinery In Corpus Christi Texas and the loved eating dinner on the tugs. Those boys could cook some good cajion sea food.
I love raw clams with our Jamaican oyster sauce lol. Made of simple ingredients little vinegar,pimento seed,garlic,hot pepper,honey and and water . leave it to marinate in a bottle for 3 days then pour just the liquid on the raw clam/oyster trust me you will never stop eat it
the best Clams are the ones you get youself!!!!!!!!!!! Grilled, Fried etc.!
Drain the oysters, run them thru and egg wash then coat with Progresso Italian Bread Crumbs. Add peanut oil(about 1/4 inch) to an electric skillet or whatever you prefer to cook in. I use 325 degrees F and when they start to brown I flip them for another few minutes and you can check them for same doneness of the coating.
Gabe you Struck Oil ,.
Make a Claim and Plant a Well Pump . 😂
The way we do it, is we leave the clams in fresh water overnight up to a couple of days so it expels all the dirt and mud then cook so they don’t need to be cleaned.
Do you leave them in the water they came out of when you collected them , or new water to let them purge?
ProTip! I do the same. Always use fresh water.
We purge them in a bucket of fresh tap water. You will definitely see a difference guaranteed, the difference is night and day.
Fresh water that has been salted to approximately the same as the water they were pulled from. Optionally you can add a few dashes of black pepper to the water or corn starch to the water if you want them to purge faster
Toe found by wiggle wiggle north of sabastian inlet. Steamed on grill till open....garlic butter n fresh herb pot liquor drenched.basically poached in sauce
That's why I go to Publix and seafood deli
Razor clams are hard to beat we have them in pacific northwest and Alaska
favorite clams: steamed cockles and pismo with garlic butter; Horse necks for chowder
Always love foraging for clams and other shell fishes
Peanut butter and clam sandwich😂😂😂 here we say jam you guys say jelly
