After a ton of research it looks like it is a welk. Ill have to remove anymore that may be remaining before they feast on my clams.

Has anybody ever designed a welk or snail trap before?

They tend to be nocturnal. If you just wait until an hour after the lights go out you can just use a flashlight and remove them by hand. I had a ton and this is how I got rid of them
