That doesn't work on these clams- you are probably thinking of the smaller narrow ones found on the other side of the planet.

@soulstar1963 I don't think that's legal in the U.S.. You gotta dig.

I agree with soulstar1963

Salt is the easiest way and it is an old way too.

But Clam gun it is one of those marketing object to get people buying it and how much it cost? $87

With salt you can poor it in 4 hole and you'll get 4 of clams at once, but with the gun 1 hole at the time and too much efforts (you are done for the day)

[soulstar1963]

why bother digging just tip some salt or water in the hole with lots of salt in it and the razor clams come out on their own

[excalubur2k]

thanks
