When using razor clams, are you always using fresh clams or fresh frozen. If baiting with fresh clams, how long do they last unrefrigerated before they go bad? Thanks

Razor clams should never be frozen - use them fresh. Kept refrigerated properly you can keep them for 3-5 days - once used some may be used over if there is still clam in the shell. It's best to plan to use clams shotly after purchased. This is why I ask customers to call me to order clams ahead of time so I can get them as fresh as possible. Never put ice directly on clams either - use containers that have been frozen on the clams and cover with a wet towel or piece of burlap.
