I haven't been there this year, but in year's past they had most of the popular sized clams. I'd just give 'em a call.

Go to Dicks Sporting Goods. Even better if you can find the little guy that stocks them. Beans has turned away from the sportsman that it was created for and I will not do business with them anymore. Two Rivers canoe in Medway or Old Town Trading Post I will deal with. Keep the little guy in business. I know Dicks isn't the little guy but at least they don't profess to be for the sportsman and cater to the yuppies.

I was there the other night. It is hard to beat a 40% off sale. They had all of the Clam models, two Shappells, and a couple HT or Frabills-I don't remember which. Any one been up to their new store and seen the cold water fish tank in the wall? Not quite the size of a Bass Pro fish tank, bu tthe spread of trout is impressive.

I have the Shappell 3000 and its a pain because the poles fall out when dragging it
The window cracked
The Bunjee cords broke that hold the poles together
I do like the larger window
I do like how light it is
I do like how quick it sets up
I now have a sled and want to get the Big Clam 5600 as it is much more durable and more room for the kids and friends

I have a clam 5600. Good for 1-2 people can fit more but it gets pretty cramped inside. Sets up quickly. Would recommend it to anyone. I have found it tows hard by hand but I strap it to top of the jet sled and it pulls great.
