OLYMPIA — Razor clam digging at Mocrocks and Copalis beaches will be open for the first weekend of March.
The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife shellfish managers said digging reopens at Mocrocks on Friday, March 3 followed by opportunities March 5 and March 7.
Also, Copalis opens on Saturday, March 4, March 6, and March 8.
“Hopefully the weather will be kind to us for the upcoming six days of harvest on Copalis and Mocrocks only,” said Bryce Blumenthal, a WDFW coastal shellfish biologist. “The low tides will not be as deep as previous digs, but there should be plenty of daylight digging opportunity considering how early they occur.”
The daily limit is 15 razor clams per person. Under state law, a daily limit consists of the first 15 clams dug regardless of size or condition, and each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container.
