Arrived at the beach at about 6:15 am.... well ahead of the low tide.

Zero traffic at that hour.... and purposefully so.

There were a few folks that camped overnight... vehicles scattered on the beach about one every 100-150 yds. Steady stream of cars/trucks started pouring in after about 6:45 am.

First clam came to hand at 6:52 am on the photo time stamp. Took over an hour to top off 6 limits for our immediate crew. Extended group of 10 more buds joined us on the chosen patch of sand.

Took a few minutes to shed boots/waders, get cleaned up, crack a Corona, and get a GLORY pic of the crew. Exited the beach and on the highway at about 8:25 am... about an hour and a half BEFORE low water.

Steady traffic still pouring into the beach approach as we departed.

Pics soon.
