As a Richmonite, we might have fishing opportunities but not very often we get to forage for clams and oysters. Todays catch we found an open and safe area to harvest some clams and oysters.
Digging for about 30 minutes we got our quota of clams. Mostly butter and little necks.
Soaking them in freshwater to eat tonight as Rebeca has promised to make a Spanish clam dish consisting of butter, wine, flour and some herbs. Stay tuned!
Now camping on Denman at a Hip Camp on a 140 year old farm. Amazing. Foraged berries today and planning on clamming tomorrow. Stay tuned. Also checked out a winery today.
After canoeing headed back to fish for pinks and coho from the shores of Campbell River but the wind and tides did not work out in our favour. So decided to make our way to hornby Island and check out Tribune bay.
Amazing place
Some people paddle around Quadra to Octopus island or Rebeca spit but we chose to paddle a lake on Quadra.
Absolute five stars for this trip. Only thing that would make it a five plus is catching some cutties. FYI we did hook into a small one.
One of the highlights of this trip was canoeing to a hiking spot and hiking to the ocean. Hence the reason there are ocean shots.
