Brent Woolard Two of my sons went to the scout camp. I’ve been camping at Dosewallips many times. I love paddling my canoe and seeing the occasional family of otters. Hood Canal is God’s Country.

Brownsville, near you is never open. The clams there are so big cause no one is allowed to harvest them. 😅

[@my-back-yard]

Too much “septic issues” 🤣

[@jtf267]

You are a very lucky man. I've never clam but would love to try when i visit my son next month in Seattle. I will try to figure out if its possible in July-August and where.
Thank you 😊

[@bobmartin9871]

Could you post a written receipe

[@ASMRGRATITUDE]

Very useful guide. Thank you so much. To whomever does the closed captioning: there is a huge typo at 7 minutes 35 seconds. It's a bad word so I cannot type it here. What it should say is "steaming". Do they have a robot or human transcribing these?

[@my-back-yard]

Robot. Out of my control

[@ASMRGRATITUDE]

@@my-back-yard I knew it wasn't your fault. I meant to say who is working at TH-cam.
If they use a robot, they should have some kind of quality checking? 😃 🤣
