Gaper Clams, sometimes called Horse Clams, are one of Puget Sound's largest clam species. They are prized for their flavorful and abundant meat and make excellent chowder and mince meat clams. Best harvested on large negative tides during the summer their are numerous public beaches with a few hours of Seattle where Gaper Clams can be harvested. Limits are 7 clams per person. Check the following website to ensure beaches are open to clamming and not closed due to seasonal or health reasons: https://fortress.wa.gov/doh/biotoxin/...
