Clam diggers who want to dig some fresh razor clams for the holidays will get their first chance this coming Saturday, Dec. 10 at four ocean beaches. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) has approved the evening dig at Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis and Mocrocks beaches after marine toxin tests showed that the clams on those beaches are safe to eat. The low evening tide on Saturday Dec. 10 will be at 6:30 p.m. No digging will be allowed at any of those beaches before noon. WDFW has also tentatively scheduled a two-day dig Dec. 22-23 at the same four beaches, pending the results of future toxin tests. Final approval for that dig will be announced once those tests show the clams are still safe to eat. All diggers age 15 or older must have an applicable 2011-12 fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach.
