Overview: about surf clam

Surf clams are often caught incidentally by surf anglers in VIC and TAS while targeting other species in shallow coastal waters. They can be encountered using baits like squid or pipis in 1-10m of water, with a gentle lift often needed to set the hook. Not typically targeted for eating, but can be used as bait themselves.
