A couple weekends ago I was swimming with friends and their kids. We discovered numerous, countless, freshwater clams about 3 inches below the sandy bottom. We had fun digging them up and collecting them for a while when one of the kids opened one. A bluegill immediately found the guts and she thought that was the coolest thing, so everyone started popping them open and watching the bluegill circle all around us. Eventually, these fish were basically sitting in our laps eating the innards of these clams. We got a kick out of it.
*Disclaimer: Story gets gross here. I had a pretty significant scab over my knee from a baseball injury at the time. I wasn�t even going to swim, but was coaxed into it. Being in the water as long as we were, the scab softened up. I wasn�t even paying attention to it at the time, just having fun with the kids having the fish eat out of our hands, but felt a peck at my knee. I looked and the soft scab was just floating, only connected to my knee by a thread. Right then, the bluegill noticed as well, and it was like a school of piranha. I barely blinked and they had it pulled off and were carrying it away, fighting over it.
