Tomales Clam Digging on Wednesday June 24th

...yummy

Those are some big ones Paul. WTG dude!

Jedmo

Thanks Sonny, anyone else on here want to start a second buy?

Hi Mark,

Please check your PM.

Sonny

Sonny I spoke with my friend 18" thin wall PVC for $12 a foot he will cut for free. He makes a few of these and said the thin wall works a lot better than the reg stuff and it's a lot easier to lug around. His name is Kevin just tell him you know me and if you want to pick it up he prefers that you call ahead and he will pre-cut. I'll help out if I can but my schedule is a little wacky right now, I can at least get it to Santa Rosa and maybe a few to Dillion.

Mike, you are awesome.  Do you mind if I also call your friend?  Clamming is on my to-do list this summer.

Anyone can call it is a business he did say that he only has 60' but he doesn't sell much so it should be plenty, he has 15" also but I didn't check the price

Thanks a bunch Mike. I appreciate the help. Hopefully Sonny will see this soon so
we can carpool and pick it up for us and the rest of the guys that had ordered.

Jedmo

Thank you very much Mike.  I called and left a message since he closed at 5pm.  I'll call him again tomorrow to place the order.

Jed,

I googled the address and it's about 90 minute drive from here.  Are you still available on Thursday so we can carpool there and pick them up?

Sonny

Definitely, we will make some stops along the way. There is a cool tackle shop
in Rohnert Park I forget the name. I want to get more tackle for this Saturday.

Jedmo

Last call for anyone here want to buy one.  Jed and I will pick them up for you if you live too far from this place.

So far we got Allan, Mark, myself, Jed and his friends.  Please specify the length that you want, if not I will assume the length is 3 feet.

I jut confirmed with LL's that the gate won't be open until 6:00am.  Low tide on Father's day is at 5:22am (-1.4 ft) so if we go there on that day for clamming then we have to be at the gate before 6:00am and be ready to launch before 6:30am since the tide will be flooding quickly.  I still think it's doable but we need to hurry with the digging.  If you think it's too rusting then we can delay a couple days for better tide and timing (see tidal chart on page 1).  Let me know what you guys think.

Wednesday or Thursday looks really good. I would love to make it in those days
if at all possible.

Jedmo

Jed and I drove up there and picked up the PVC tubes today.   The owner was very friendly and helpful.  Thank you Mike again for the connection.  I'm ready to go clamming again on the next minus tide
