Regulations on clams at boarder

Mood: I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

Calms at the boarder


I think every surfer should remain calm. (Sorry, I couldn't help myself) :biggrin:

Keep calm and carry on...

I've brought back clams out of the shell many times. No issues if you declare it. Personal amounts, whatever that means.

We had clams taken away from us at the Mexicali crossing with the claim they were contaminated. They came from San Felipe. However, this was some years ago.
