  1. Hi all.

    Selling these two clams. Don't know the names of them.

    The blue one is roughly 4-4.5" in lenght.

    The multi-colored one is about 3-3.5".

    Asking $50 each.

  2. Thanks Collin! smile.png

    I'm actually going to put my whole colony (over 50 eyes at LEAST) for sale here. I will send pictures to serious buyers. I will be selling it for $250. That is $5/eye. You won't find a better deal out there, I can assure. Unfortunately, I'm paying for the wreck I was in earlier last month, so some things have to go.

    I also have a mini-colony of Red Planet I will sell as well for $125, pictures upon request of serious buyers.

  3. Fun times are watching a water moccasin drop off a tree branch into a flat bottomed boat passing by. biggrin.png

    I grew up in SW Louisiana, very much at home in swamps and marshes. Without a doubt, the Cotton Mouth Moccassain is the most aggressive posoinous snake in the America's. During my high shool days, hunting and fishing the Atchafalaya Basin was an important recreation. While duck hunting during the first season, a CottonMouth dropped in the flatbottomed boat between me and my best friend, John D Ritchey. John D's father was Chief of Police in Lafayette and we often would cruise in his fathers unmarked car. Well, John D blew out the bottom of the boat with two shots from his 12 gauge shotgun. As we slowly sank in 3' of water, I scholded John D for putting us in the cold water with the dead snake, 10 miles from camp.

    Two hours later, both of us are on the rear sit of the 14' johnboat going full spped with 3/4 of the flat bottom boat out of the water (including two jagged hole). It was a hunt to remember.

    When the snakes are poisonous, I kill them.

    I would've needed a new pair of pants if I ended up in the water in the Atchafayala. I've been fishing there multiple times when I was younger, and every time we encountered a few alligators and other not-so-friendly creatures of the swamp.
