Jay, you and Sam would eat a cinderblock if it had sweet chili sauce on it! Good video!
Hi mate do you still have the sandwiches
True 😂
@@SMASHFISHING 🤣🤣
Some chopped bacon and mushrooms be banging with that 👍
You are the first one I have seen filling in the holes. How very nice of you.
Pour le côté caoutchouteux la solution aussi est de ne pas manger la peau du siphon : on coupe comme toi le siphon aux deux extrémités et on ouvre en 2 pour le nettoyer. Ensuite on plonge les siphons ouverts 15 à 30 secondes dans l'eau bouillante (selon la taille) et autant de temps dans l'eau glacée, égoutter et ainsi on peut enlever facilement la peau épaisse des siphons, c'est ensuite très tendre, très fin. On cuisine aussi les 2 petits pétoncles et le pied de cette lutraire souvent en gratin avec d'autres types de palourdes. Super vidéo.
Was surprised you liked it because you don't usually eat clams. Good to see you trying it again and enjoying it too.
Thanks mate
The gaper clams are larger than the steamers that I dug for as a child. They were only steamed, not fried. Served with butter sauce. The blue lobster was a beautiful shade. Great video.
Thanks Debra
Nice to see the female swimming crabs ...
That gapper is about the size of our razors ... A bit thicker but as wide and long ... Geoducks are bugger all HUGE ...
Do you have to use hands to clam ???
A spot of lemon zest in the flour is nice too ...
Gardening for gaper clams with smash fishing 😂. That was a cool video. I love how colourful all of the plant life gets in your water. Definitely going to try gaper clam valve sometime.👍🇨🇦
Thanks mate was surprised how good they are
We have loads down our way too. I eat the syphon and the swim foot but only flash fry them. I think lemon ruins the flavour but each to their own. Great vid bud 👍
Been waiting for something new to watch thanks
I discovered sweet chili sauce about 2 years ago.
The sauce is now a mandatory condiment in my household.
The Heinz one in a little squeezy bottle is quite nice....but there’s many of diff makes n brands.....and bog standard, sweet chilli sauce is beautiful....goes well with most things...👌❤️
@@crashbang756 Currently I am on a bottle of "Iron Chef". I like it.
I am a firm believer of, trying everything that is out there .
I then go back to the tastiest.
WHICH one did Smash use this time? WAS it the Blue Dragon one? I would like it, if he tried different sweet chilli sauces & reviewed them with his food.
& throw in some Guernsey 🇬🇬 food reviews too: butter, beer, meat etc.
AND REVIEW YOUR ELECTRIC BIKE TOO SMASH...Please & thankq.
You guys need to try sweet chili sauces from the Chinese cash and carry or any with Chinese writing....those are proper authentic, you can taste the garlic, etc
@@asabibeckles110 I test them all.
Rural middle America only have a few choices.
I would love to have a choice labeled, "Made in the U S A......
Very nice. We have a kind of gaper clam in the west coast waters(USA). Now I got to try them.
Never thought a gaper would look so delicious 😋 nice one smash great night forage 👌
Same mate was surprised how good they are
@@SMASHFISHING in my mind I had written them off as table food and just put then in the bait department. Now I can have my bait and eat it. Thank you Jay
(Sadness) The valves are OK. But try purging your gapers overnight, shuck them, strip the skin off the valves, then bread the the whole clam. (Your pick: cornflour followed by egg or milk or buttermilk, followed by crumbs, wheat flour, medium-grind cornmeal, or a mix of flour and cornmeal. Or fine-crushed Ritz crackers...) Then deep fry them or pan-fry them in modestly deep oil. Or I suppose you could pan fry them in just a slick of oil or butter. But...
These are delicious. Wikipedia thinks that yours are at least close in species to the New England (North Eastern US) steamer clam, or soft-shell clam. At least as similar as your lobsters are to ours as near as I can tell. They should be LOVELY fried up whole instead of throwing away half the clam...
some salad, fries, bread roll heavily buttered... YUM
I know that fried clams are delicious, awesome job Jay. I would eat them any day!👍
Wonderful video! I was thrilled to see a new one uploaded! You really reminded me of my cat when you were digging with both hands!!
Haha I looked like a cat digging to 😂
I've eaten these fried with garlic and ginger. They taste amazing.
We use a pitch fork that is short and the forks are vertical , they help in not hurting the clam we would call what you have there as Cohogs ( spelling ) we would deep fry ones a little smaller than those , My FAVORITE !!!! Thanks for all the great content !!!
Wam bam smash fishing the man.
I absolutely love watching your channel learned alot also like how you treat wild life with so much respect and try to use as much of the animal as possible instead of just throughing it out keep making videos amazing job 😁👍👍
Thank you I appreciate that
Tastes similar to ormer....now you have a back up for when you're craving ormers out of season! Thanks Smash!
Definitely Val
Getting my weekend off to a great start. thank you
In a wrap with salad and garlic mayo.... YUM
Such a beautiful blue color.
Great vid Smash ! waters getting clearer and the season is progressing can only get better! It's a shame nearly 5000 views and only 620 likes what is up with people not just hitting that button and helping you out
Thanks Barry
The stickleback and Dab stole the show. Love the use of sweet chilli sauce on everything you eat (How much are Blue Dragon paying you? ha ha). Great foraging video, I was asked if I could live of the land, tried it for two weeks but only survived by digging up farmers potato's and scrumping apples. Ate all kinds of fungi, blackberries and hazel nuts but said you could not survive unless you lived by the sea. You open our world to sea food.
Thanks David , that’s cool that you went out and tried it out for your self , good on you
So cool to see the small species fish in the shallows, that sole was ace! Tasty haul, roll on the next video 👏👌✌🐟
Thanks holy
Nice video mate. That stickleback fish looks cool. Nice cook up too 🔥 👍
Thanks mate they are surprisingly good eating ! Thanks for watching
Clams with garlic butter & some nice bread yummy 😋
Next up gaper clam burger! With sweet chilisauce - of course!!😄
Those gaper clams have a beautiful blue color and the ladycrabs have beautiful colors too.
Very nice video, Smash!!
That’s a great idea ! Thanks
Finger mullet they are awesome eating.... need a bunch but they fry up nicely.... remove the head and scales and cook whole....
That is quite the revelation ! Year round ! Looked yummy 😋 reckon a sprinkle of garlic powder in the flour would be great too. Thank you as ever for your post's 🤗
Definitely! Thanks for watching
This is the real deal for fun mate, cheers.
Nice a new Smash Ramsey vid! Looks good!😄😄👍
A fantastic recipe for these would be to add them into a bowl with fresh pineapple juice, lemon juice, cumin, turmeric, honey, salt nd white pepper.. leave that over night and the pineapple juice will break down the meat and tenderise it 👌🏻👍🏻 take the meat and quickly cook it on a bbq grill.. the juice left over you reduce down in a pan until it’s thick, whisk in a knob of butter and then add some fresh tarragon leaves or Thai basil 👌🏻 even better with a homemade naan on the bbq and some salad.. omfg 😋🤤👌🏻👍🏻
Great video. I’ll be cooking some of those too
Glad I subbed Jay, I have a bad day, you upload a vid, all is good in the world again! Thank you man:)
Glad to hear that mate glad you enjoy the channel
I live in Adelaide Sth Australia. No finds like yours. Plus many laws🇦🇺
Lovely forage about smash. I felt like I had a labradors view when you were digging 🤣 nice catch n cook and seeing nothing goes to waste👍👍
Haha thanks for watching Racheal !
The LEGEND is back calmness from the storm . Cheers smash
Thanks Ben hope your good mate
Can't beat blue dragon chili sauce
Wish we could go fishing with u
Ceep up the grind
This video is funny I'm watching this at 2am
Eating my food while watching this makes delicious 🤤
Down down down he goes, where he goes nobody knows - DMFD 😄
Nice, I was hoping you would eat those clams. The rest of the clam looks like it would make a good chowder.
Reminds me grabbong for pile worms for my bait
Great...Now I'm Hungry !!!
It's like watching someone preparing fora trip to outerspace just eat the damn thing
In New England we eat the whole clam deep fried
Scrumptious mate. I tried your cockle recipe a couple of days ago after foraging them and it was delicious, I m off mackeral bashing tomorrow so hopefully a couple for my tea tommorrow great vid mate and keep 'em coming Cheers Jay
Nice ! Glad you enjoyed it mate best of luck
Looks wonderful man 👍👍👍👍👍
I'm so happy to be a part of the Smash family
Thanks Anna
He Smash i love your night time video's the life you capture is great, must admit when you were tapping the sand i thought you were testing for quick sands lol then i saw the clam shoot water out; keep the videos coming stay safe stay well Manchester UK.
Haha fair play Fred thanks for watching
Great video matey 🔥
Thanks mate
And I thought gaper clams weren’t edible. Good on you smash. Those look yummy!
Night time foraging 🙏🙏 love it.
Because of you, I now eat sweet chili sauce on everything. Very nice.
Great video Smash!! Lol I agree. I looked quite dodgy!!!!! Haha
👍👍
That's what I would make!
Clam rolls!!!
😋😋😋
Man there’s alot of food around that spot to survive
To get better juice from the lemons, roll them hard on the table first. It tenderizes it and you'll get more juice from it
Good tip thanks 🔥
Might kill /,over power some stuff but try some thin sliced red onion (more the outer rings ) soaked in red wine vinegar for at least two hours, taste like pickled onion space invaders👌goes really well in a crusty roll with chopped bacon cockles lettuce shredded crab sticks and prawn maybe some spicy mayo mmmmmmmmmm
Ckams here make awesome bait
Some nice little finds there mate
Thanks mate
Brilliant channel.
Smash fishing drinking game rules
Go!
Reminds viewers about safety
Aggressive lady crab
Gets pinched
Gurney butter
Would be nice with Bacon and eggs for breakfast lovely x
I would have got to
The tenderising stage
Seasoned them and thrown them
In the bin lol
😂😂
Looks like a bowl of Guernsey sized Willie's
😂😂👍
They look great. 💯👍💯👍 Gordan Ramsey move aside. Jase is the man now.💯👍
Low tides always got me bait
Arrrrrggggh.... before you spotted the sole you were just about to tell us how you can tell if it's a razor or gaper! I REALLY need to know lol! Till now I throw the salt in and if it doesn't pop up it's probably a gaper...I'd love to spot the difference without the salt.
A razor hole is a key hole shape and they squirt a little water , the gapers have a big round hole and shoot lots of water
Happy fishing 🎣 friends .
Great footage .

Thanks for watching
Smash time again
Did anyone else see Elvis in the sea sponge and rock at the beginning of the vid?
Great forage Jay bet you got lobster 🦞 withdrawl but still got some great seafood there congrats bro
Thanks David
Do you learn these things yourself by going out and doing it or have you learnt from other CZcams channels. For example, digging up Gaper Clams by hand and how to deal with them and cook the valve fried coated with seasoned flour. Just wondered where you may get some of your knowledge from.
No I read a lot of books on sea life and cooking , so I try various different ideas that pop into my head while I’m out foraging , iv been doing this since a child so iv always had a fair knowable of what’s around but studying books have improved that a lot more
@@SMASHFISHING Thanks for the reply. Amazing to hear someone still uses books on sea life. At lest the internet has not taken it all away. I'm and not one for books but your video gave me interest in these Gaper Clams as I often see their empty shells so I did a CZcams search of collecting and cooking Gaper Clams and I see Cornish Shore and Kayak Fisherman has done a couple of videos and Craig Evans both digging up by hand. Really interesting must try these.
Nice food presentation Jay!!!
Thank you
Never tried gaper clam but they look delicious 😋They look like clam bacon 🥓
They are definitely worth a go Vikki 👍
Good video they looked really tasty and you were enjoying it tight lines till the next one
Thanks Liz the clams are great fried
OK for bait but you know those clams are great whole, steamed and dredged in butter. I would have eaten them that way and found different bait.
Can you try a soft lobster please
I have seen other videos where they clean them differently and eat more than just the valve. Have you tried that ?
Yes you can eat the hole clam but the other part is more valued as bait for me
I wonder if you soaked them in lemon juice after tenderizing them if it would help any?
Maybe
delicious 😋🤤
When i was a kid we fished for Dungeness crabs
really enjoyed this one
Come on the gapers.woo hoo
Do a lady crab catch and cook please
Ok 👍
The French have eaten all the spider crabs.
I bet it was the Chines!
That’s an awful amount of work for a few fried strips. I Bet they were amazingggggg
They taste great and is pretty fun getting them so it’s all good
They looked so tasty.i want some now.teriffic video jay .I'm starving now .thanks jay.
