português-english translation:
catch shellfish

português-english-chelsea translation:
on day of super low tide, cruise to Ninilchik with good peoples,
put on warm waterproof-ish clothing,
search for dimples in the sand, jab pointy object into hole,
dig, dig, dig with special clamming shovel,
lay on stomach and shove arm into cold, wet, sandy hole,
feel around for something hard and pull it out,
if pull out rock, stick arm back in hole and search again,
if unable to find clam, go to new dimple in sand,
repeat process until find a few clams or until realize it is time to give up.
