CORRECTION: No digging is allowed before noon during digs when low tide occurs in the afternoon or evening.
OLYMPIA – Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) shellfish managers confirmed seven days of razor clam digs on coastal beaches beginning Jan. 26.
“Diggers can look forward to another week of razor clamming,” said Bryce Blumenthal, WDFW’s recreational razor clam manager. “Success can be spotty this time of year, so don’t be afraid to walk or drive to a different area of beach and remember to stomp and pound the sand to make the clams show.”
Not all coastal beaches are open for every dig, so diggers are encouraged to make sure their intended destination is open before heading out. No digging is allowed before noon during digs when low tide occurs in the afternoon or evening. Most successful digging occurs between one and two hours before the listed time of low tide.
The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) showed razor clams are safe to eat:
