July 9th scallop report.

Post by Hit-n-Miss »

Got down to Keaton around 10:00 and got to it. Image. With the falling tide this week the scallops were slow to show themselves, staying buried down on the grass. It took the 4 of us three hours today to get our limit. But we did. Lots of fun swimming around today. Image. 8 gallons iced down good. Then it was time to head home (hitting McDonald's on the way). And get to cleaning. Image. Another fun day with my family and friends. Check this scallop out. Image. "...nice day for a white wedding... "

Nice, you sure have them pegged this year. What are the little brown things on their shells?

. They are what my grandmother called slipper shells. Don't know the scientific name. They are mollusks I think.

Glad you were still able to get after them. We managed a 5 gallon bucket at St. Marks. It was a little slower than last weekend, we had to search a little harder-about 3 hours. My 10 year old would stay out there all day! Hope you get that trailer this week.
