Capt Anthony,
Does Spring Lake Freezer Co sell to the public or do you need to know a secret handshake to get in?

I get my clams at Jim's in Cape May or at Fin-Attics in Ocean City. A full bushel will have 6 to 8 dz. And yes they are a bitch to drag down the dock. Its times like this I wish I  had a mate.
