It would be interesting to see all of the packages emptied and weighed, then prepared and reweighed to see how much waste each have. Love the videos!!!!
I subscribed'' great video'' Chip'',. now if we can get you and Eddie with these clam's breaking in his new 14 foot Lamiglas surf Rods catching a proper mess of pompano'' i would dial in on that here too',. 🐟....🐟....🐟..
@@thesinkerguy I’m surf fishing for the first time in years. After watching your videos I think l will be way better prepared. I’ve learned a ton from you. I’ll be fishing Ormond beach Friday and Saturday. Do you know how the fish are doing down there? Thank you!
Don't throw away your used salt just dry it out and keep using it, the more you use it the better it gets specially if you are salt preserving multiple baits as all the flavors and smells from the other baits is added to your new baits.
Good video on how to salt. I'm wondering though about losing all that moisture and flavor. I agree the clams need to toughen up to better stay on the hook but is it at the sacrifice of smell (and taste)?
I find the elastic bait string holds the bait better than salting bait all else equal. Salting helps and the two make a huge difference. 😊 You also want to put in a container that has holes in the bottom and let it sit for a week to really drain out and be rubbery.
I'm glad you included the elastic string. To this point, the guts are very valuable as bait too, so salt it too use with the string whether using fresh or salted. It's a really good bait and will get you more value for your clam purchase. Great vid!!
Thanx for the video... I actually use the whole clam and tie it with elastic clear thread to hold tight to my hook. I found that I get more hits using the belly and the tongue more than just the tongue. Striper loves that belly
Ironic Wehraboo you can try iodized but I was told that it has a flavor? But I am not a chemist so I can’t actually tell you if it does. Just eliminating potential.

Why waste the salt leave it in the sun to dry out, and reuse.
looks good!😎👍
Super Tip 👍🏼👍🏼
Mr. E thank you

Salty Moon Fishing thank you so much! We need to fish together sometime soon!
The Sinker Guy yea man absolutely! I’ve actually never been surf fishing! Lol, always in the boat.

patrick Bragdon we will see if Eddie can cast them big beasts all day! Lol
@@thesinkerguy 👍
Awesome video!
Thank you a lot more to come
I'm curious to know why some guys salt their clams and others like Larry Finch stick to strictly fresh. Does it make any difference???
Josh Flamm Realtor Larry owns a seafood market! He can get clams regularly
Does salting help preserve the bait? New to surf fishing. Thanks man.
Yes it does and makes is tougher so it stays on the hook better

Should we leave it in freezer?
I would recommend doing that
@@thesinkerguy how long we have to leave it inside
Can you use Kosher salt? Also if you use pink salt will it change the color of the bait?
I am not for sure! Try it and share with us!
Yes you can use Kosher salt
I got a shout out!! Listen up folks, this stuff really makes a difference!
Don't throw away your used salt just dry it out and keep using it, the more you use it the better it gets specially if you are salt preserving multiple baits as all the flavors and smells from the other baits is added to your new baits.
Probably best in an oven at low temp. Florida is so humid putting it in the sun is liable to have it draw more moisture from the air.
The belly is the best part. Striper love the belly
Do you salt the belly whole? Thanks, tight lines
Where do you buy the Bionic Clams? I'm in NH and cant find anywhere local, how much are they per package?
ive been searching for a good instructional video on this and now i have it, ive just subbed to your channel aswell, many thanks
Says scissors are really good then 1 second later cant even cut the bag open @6:20. I cant stop laughing

How to prepare salted clams?
Step 1: get clams
Step 2: add salt
Thanks for watching the channel

Seems pretty wasteful
@@stevendausel643 🤷🏾♂️ I don't know what it seems, but I know it definitely works better with, than without for me.
Great videos!
Michael Collins thank you so much! I hope it helps everyone!
Adding some MSG to mine to enhance the flavor :)
Add some garlic powder too
I am so ready to fish but this damn weather!!
I fished today but just high tide before the rain. Water was affected by all the rain yesterday!
Thanks for another awesome video. 👍
Thank you sir!
All the scraps mixed with some flower meal And sand make some good surf side chum
People with high blood pressure looking at this like 👁 👄 👁....
Question: I have a pack of fresh lobster meat that it is no fit to be eaten (Yeah, I know... a shame). Can I salt it to make bait out of it?
Absolutely try it and let us know how it goes.
OUTSTANDING, I MUST TRY THIS MYSELF...
Awesome instructions!
Can I use frozen mussels? Found you on SlotCityFishing. New fan from West Palm Beach, Florida. °\(ッ)/° ßÏG HÛGŠ
I do not use mussel but have thought about using them! I know that a lot of fish feed on them! Please report back how it turns out.
Why does the salt have to be not iodized ?
Ironic Wehraboo you can try iodized but I was told that it has a flavor? But I am not a chemist so I can’t actually tell you if it does. Just eliminating potential.
Are the clams native to FLA salt water?
Not the clams we are fishing with but yes we have clams that migrate with water temperatures.
Holy cow you sound just like Jordan Peterson, great video!
I thank you for the compliment!
