Hello everybody,
I'm from Germany and I'm looking for someone who knows where in Ireland I could get razor clams. I would like to see how to catch them und where. A place near Cork would be great, because I plan a trip to Cork. I read you can catch them only in early spring at fullmoon. And you have to go backwards - otherwise they escape very quickly. is that true? Is here someone who could help me?
Thank you very much
Giulietta

Look around your nearest harbour and find a boat that fishes for them and buy them direct from the boat ,way cheaper than a tackle shop and they're fresh
