Claming
Hi. I am getting ready to make a trip to the Mulege area and would like to do some claming and need to know if it is safe to eat them this time of
year? Thanks in advance. Tom

You do know it is illegal for non Mexicans to collect clams...??? (this includes all shell fish...)
They sure are great fun to eat, however!
I will let some Mulege area Nomads give you the safe to eat dates... if it matters...

Claming
Thanks David, I have done some Claming in the Mulege area before and your right, they are great. The last time I did any claming there my truck was
broke in to and I lost about 400.00$ in cash so the clams were paid for. I still need to know if there are still months that clams are not good to
eat? Thanks again Tom

Understood... Nomads Pompano, Marv, Bob and Susan, and others from Mulege should have an answer...
In 1976 at El Requeson, in about 2 feet of water and beyond... all the butter clams you could eat... My dad loved it there!! Our first time camping at
El Requeson was in 1966... I was too youing to remember all the details, but I bet the clams were in 1 inch of water and beyond!

Clamming...?
Clamming is illegal. We do not clam. If if was legal to clam we would not do it during any Red Tide. Also if we were to ever clam it would make no
difference what month we might do it...or whether the month has an 'R'. IF I WERE to clam I would head for the south end of the Bay at low tide and
walk out as far as I could with a bucket and rake. Sit on my butt and rake the clams to me. But this is impossible to do because tourists are not
allowed to clam. However you can go out there and make nice sand castles, like we are doing here.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Tough?
Naw....try them at El Patrons...the old Almeja by the lighthouse. They use an old recipe Johnny Tequila showed Ramon when he was still
alive..(Ramon, that is, JT is still kicking up in Utah.) "Choco-lah-tey Erotica." Simply delicious on the grill with some chopped onions, tomato
bits, cheese, garlic bread crumbs, and tobasco. Yummy with a Pacifico on the seaside tables. The steamers are tender too, with some buttery sauce.

On those clams creating a love-fest problem: Reminds me of an old friend, Jean Pierre, a French Algerian who ran the Hacienda Hotel and adjoining
Casablanca Cafe some years ago. (Where the Pelican Reef is today)
Nicknamed 'The Golden Piccolo' by Mulege townspeople, Jean Pierre was quite the ladykiller and liked to eat those 'Chocolate Eroticas.' He would
often tell me that he had eaten a dozen the night before,... "but only eleven worked!" He was held in awe by us mortals.
