TheWoWDBYou can just collect them from the ground in the murlocs area or under water in the rift - they are quite small (see screenshot). They also drop from murlocs but drop rate is low and it's just way safer to just pick them up from ground.

UPDATE! With all the changes that has taken place the clams now exists in 2 states. Open, and closed - and like in real life any open clam is a dead clam. Attempts to loot open clams will result in an error message saying "To far away". At first i thought i was bugged and relogged - but it turns out they are simply just unexisting as open.
swim over to the other coast and u'll find those murlocs (40, 16)
They also can be picked up on the grounddon't forget to pick up a quest http://wotlk.wowhead.com/?quest=11569 further inside there has a cave

Description
Now that you can speak with the Winterfin, it is time for you to let them get to know you. One of the best ways to do that is to conduct business with them. The murlocs prize clams over any other object and their only surviving merchant is Ahlurglgr. If I were you, I'd collect a handful of Winterfin clams and give them to him as a gift. The clams can be found all over down in the trench, as well as across it in the Winterfin village and their caverns.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.

To help, you must learn how to speak the Winterfin dialect. We'll work with the forces of nature and magic to do that. Take this empty conch shell. At the bottom of the watery trench below exists Scalder, an elemental of air and watery fury.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Oh Noes, the Tadpoles!
Oh good, you're back! When the landslide at the village across the water exposed the caverns, a malevolent lobstrok, known as Claximus, came out of the caves and stole the Winterfin tadpoles away.
