Not sure, but I remember a good laugh here at P.E. years ago when someone brought up the sub-genre "Sea Shanty Prog" in all seriousness. Turns out there's a fair amount.
Not prog, but the 80s group "Figures on the Beach" had a song called "Clamdiggin'".
"While you're running your errands I'm on the beach and clammdiggin'". Great album, actually.

Dream Theater - Solitary Shell
Not prog, and not about clams, but there's Squeeze's "Pulling Mussels from a Shell" so that MIGHT meet your needs.
Sting must have a song about clamming somewhere in his albums.
...plus, of course, the complete works of Secret Oyster.
