New clam


It's purely coincidental that Casey and I got our first clams on the same day. And even more so that they look almost identical. This guy's 3 3/8" long.

Rick, Casey - now see what you're doing... that big tax return from buying a house this year just got a big chunk pre-spent for that MH upgrade. Actually, instead of putting them on the 135 maybe I can work a new 72 bowfront out of this with the MH! Hmmmm...
