I have run that sucker for 5 years now, it is light and quite strong... I even use it as a bar and it will tweak a 500lb rock around in a stone pile!

You forgot to tell her that you can only dig "Long Handled Clams" with that rake!!! That is the only legal way to harvest that species of clams... Hey Wendy... I have to tell you two, that we really enjoyed your visit and your company! You guys were a lot of fun. We really had a great time...including our visitors from the south!!! I am surely making the trip north to check out those sites that Jim has come up with. Wayne (in reply to tazmainiendigger) Post #: 45

I gave the old swamp 3 days to thaw some more and went back in this morning, believe it or not there is still quite a bit of ice another week should do it... I did manage to find these little jewels in the muck, A yellow amber Dyottville Patent whiskey (3 piece mold), A icy blue Shiloh's consumption and A Ingall's Bro's Portland, Me. Belfast gingerale.I also recovered a cosmoline jar, sloans liniment, and scarce small canning jar lids. I hope you all are out digging and having a ball I know I am!!

Why oh Why do you do this to me?? Why do you torture me this way???? You're teezing me with these bottles... I'm gonna bring my tent and camp out on your doorstep!! Is the water deep enough there to dive in? Those bottles look great... did you touch them up a little in your tumbler or just wash them in soap & water?? I have to get into some crystal clear, fresh water and out of this mud I've been in.

RE: first finds of the season - 4/16/2006 4:01:40 PM    tazmainiendigger Posts: 973 Joined: 11/21/2003 From: State O Maine Status: offline Nope not deep enough wayne! 1' of water 1' of mud mix them together and it smell's like poop soup!!! Almost all of the bottles have all had the corks in them, strange usually you would throw the cork away, not this place they put them back in.... anway when you take the cork out they are half filled with crystal clear water but STINKKKK! It's like bottled hydrogen sulfide.... Taz (in reply to tazmainiendigger) Post #: 56

RE: first finds of the season - 4/16/2006 4:34:14 PM    southern Maine diver Posts: 1436 Joined: 8/13/2005 From: South Berwick, Maine USA Status: offline Hey Taz... That's exactly what Pam tells me after a day of diving in the mud... she says I "STINNNK" and I smell like a bottle of hydrogen sulfide, rotten, boiled eggs, and worse things... She won't even hug me or give me a kiss... My youngest boy, Nathan, tells me I "smell like Butt!" Nobody will come near me, so I have to get undressed out on the back deck or in the garage and quick jump into the shower... so now the neighbors are starting to complain as well!!!
