Thread: How about a SCALLOP FEST?

Sounds like a lot of fun. I heard about Scalloping. You snorkel around for them, right?

We'll be over there 8/24 thru 8/29 doing just that. It's the end of scallop season and they run smaller but at least there are fewer boats and crazies flying around.

Yes. You and Sharon fly on down we have fun

This is a lot of fun. and yes you use a snorkel and mask and collecting bag (usally a mesh bag), be sure to wear sufficent clothing to keep your self from getting sunburned. It always took us the better part of a day to get everybody on the boat enough for a couple of meals. The one draw back is cleaning the little buggers, once you get them open we found spoon works the best to seperate the mucsle from the eyes and entrals. Good eating.

Im going this weekend chrystal river mask and snorkel ready course you all already saw that lol

If there's a crowd going then take some pictures showing us landlocked folks what it is youre doing. Never heard how scallops are gathered.
