scallop time

[phatdaddy]

season opened on july 1 adn they are thick this year. the last coupla years have been slim, so this is a welcomed change



the daily limit is 2 gallons in the shell per person w a 10 gallon limit per boat. this is about 6 gallons which yielded 5 pints of meat.



this is what your going after, not the rubbery giant sea scallops, but the sweet st joe mossy backs.(sorry about the focus)



water is a little skinny for the V, this is the boat of choice for the job 1964 13" whaler w/tohatsu 40 hp.

you snorkle in about 2 to 3 ft of water and pick em up by hand.

Those look terrific. How do you plan to prepare them (or better yet, you probably have already eaten them bad little boys), so how did you do them? I bet they would be awesome for a ceviche.
