Toheroa Gathering.

Toheroa are shellfish they move with their tongue they are hard to catch because they are fast movers through the sand. So you have to be fast to catch them
To gather Toheroa you must have a permit, some buckets for the Toheroa,
some friends and some ready to go hands to dig for Toheroa. You will be
fined if the Toheroa are not 100mm long, bigger than 100mm is ok the fine is $500.00.
The Toheroa must be eaten on the day you stated on the permit this is usually a special occasion. Toheroa are harmful to people because they hide in the sand.
They will die if they are out of the sand.
