Okay...I`ve strictly been an orchestral clarinetist ever since I started playing. Lately,I`ve been hearing jazz on the clarinet, and it sounds AWESOME! I`d love to play it on my clarinet. The only problem is that the closest I`ve come to jazz was a swing song @ band camp...How can I start off? How did all of ya`ll start? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Listen to jazz, get a book with some "songs" and chords and then play like you feel with all this in mind.
