Re: Scallops: Clean on boat or clean back on shore?

Cleaning on boat early in season because they are small will yield more meat for sure.This requires a two person crew cleaning . You start half way thru the estimated time to get your limit. The other half of your crew is still scalloping . when you get your limit most will be cleaned and remainder of crew can help finish. Crew works better with liquid refreshments and music. Keep scallops alive till cleaning much easier to clean . we never ice before cleaning beacause if you lay them on the deck in shade 80 percent of them will open .if you ice them 80 percent of them you will have to crack open total pain.
