Dania Maxwell/Staff Tom Rafferty, of Michigan, walks through a dredge made by himself and many others in a recent effort to dig out Clam Pass on January 8, 2013, in Naples, Fla. The effort was put to rest after environmental permitting complications. Sand build-up on Clam Pass has clogged what used to be open water flows between Clam Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. It is uncertain how long it will be before a dredge starts pumping sand out of the clogged pass.
