Clams for Drum?

[BBPITBULL87]

I have heard of using clams for drum fish any specific rigs or technique? Also add your input

[Steve]

Sure, Clam works fine.
Just use the standard fish finder rig with at least an 8/0 Circle hook.

yeah big chunks of clam seemed to do the job for me...FF rig with a big circle hook

I couldn't keep clams on my hook last weekend, i even used rubber bands, anyone have any tricks they use?

[Steve]

Put the hook through three times. First time through muscle, second through the middle, then third through muscle.

[A.M]

Do as Steve has said and I also use magic thread. You can find it at any bait shop, just wrap it around the clam and around the shank of the hook a few times. Then you will be ready to whip that baby out.

Surf Clams. They tend to not like chowder clams.

I have had no problem catching drum or stripers on chowders...its all I ever use.
