Here we have a really quick tutorial on how to measure Goolwa Cockles / Pipis when collecting for food/bait. Please note that the current size limit in this area (Goolwa SA, December 2017) is 3.5cm minimum and the bag limits are as follows - 300 per person - 900 per vehicle (4 or more people) - 1200 possession (total allowed in storage/freezer) Keep an eye out for a new video coming shortly on how to make a basic cockle measurer out of an icecream container lid Don't forget to hit the "Subscribe" button to catch our new videos as they are uploaded and feel free to check us out on
