does it have to be BC
i went down to blaine, got a license, and you get to have 40 clams and i think 12 oysters. I forgot what the limit is
i went to dig up geoduck, clams and oysters. Between 15 of us, we had 4 BIG ass T&T size geoduck, 80 clams and about 24 oysters. we roasted the oysters on the stop and clamato sauce boiled the clams and had our own bbq.
it's down at Blaine, WA, 5 mins from the border. Remember, make sure u look at the tide tables.

I went once with a buddy to Nanaimo...I think it was in Nanoose Bay. I think you have to get a fishing license to pick oysters. (you can get them at most sport stores - I got mine at Walmart)
Like 6793026 said, make sure you're picking at the right time of the year...otherwise you may end up getting VERY sick...
