First try at midnight foraging for me, after shellfish on the lowest tides of the month. Working during the day, so the midnight low was the only option. Good trip too - nice heavy swag bag on the walk back!

Just a cheap and cheerful LED headtorch.
Collected oysters and razor clams - about a dozen of each, and a handful of large cockles. Sometimes I get the odd scallop too, but none this trip.

Gotta know your spot for that sort of thing, or else wandering around at low tide in the dark could be hazardous.
Sounds like a nice haul.

I thought the Wye River looked exceptionally high over the past few mornings... Big Spring!
Last outing resulted in about 3lb of winkles, which where superb steamed in Balsamic
Enjoy the Razors, al.

Hey Al. that stuff is supposed to last you all year. You'll have finished it by the end of the month at this rate! You can't make more until next year you know.
