My brother and I recently paid a visit to Goolwa Beach near Victor Harbor, S.A. to collect cockles or pipis for bait and to eat. The cockles were not readily found but we did manage to locate some that were under about 15cm of sand and all had to be hand dug! It was hard work but after 4 hours we had accumulated our bag limit of 600. For some reason they were not found washing around in the surf like normal - it could be fishing pressure and being fairly well into the season or maybe it's just tide related - I would be interested in any thoughts about this.
