Digging Clams and Oysters on Cape Cod

How to dig clams & oysters

[@DiggingForHealth]

So simple! I had no idea! I've never seen this done before, looks like fun!

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

It’s simple but it’ takes some work too! I love it, especially with the grandkids, it’s all about making memories.

The next video should be how you cook them. Then invite me over. I'll be on the Cape week after Easter for two days in P-Town.

You are giving him great memories

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

All the grandchildren like to go clamming with me. Of course they hardly do any clamming, but they have fun. No crab is safe from discovery on the beach. If it’s warm I bring towels because inevitably they will be taking a dip. I am happy to make memories with them. Thanks for stopping by.

That’s part of the reason I like to bringing the grandkids, it’s to make memories!

best place to get the oysters is at dead low tide right next to the skiffs. every day when we are done with our harvest any oysters on the boat decks you trow them out.

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

Good to know! Rarely though have I had a hard time finding oysters there, but good to know !

Can you get a shellfish harvesting permit if you are from out of town and just vacationing in Cape Cod?

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

Yes you can, each town has its own licensing so check the website of whatever town you plan to go shellfishing at.

[@rubenparkin8151]

Where do you get it im in cape i want to catch some

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

I live in and have a shellfishing license in the town of Barnstable. Each town has there own licensing departments. In this video we’re at Barnstable Harbor.

What do you measure them with? Looks like fun!

[@WelcometomyCapeCodlife]

We measure them with a gauge we get from our Natural Resources office.
