Scalloping
by Dr. Charles Courtney

When June, July, August and September roll around, the hot sun makes midday fishing miserable in Big Bend waters. However Big Bend anglers have a cooler alternative that will still let them harvest the sea’s bounty, scalloping! Scalloping is a cool activity in the midsummer’s heat because you actually get into the water and swim after them. Scalloping out of Steinhatchee is very good at this time of the year. In fact, this is the only time of year you can catch your own scallops, since scallop season is open only from June 15th until the final day, Labor Day, and only from the Fenholloway River/Taylor County to Suwannee River/Dixie County.
