Razor clam digs underway along ocean beaches
The following razor clam digs during afternoon and evening low tides (noon to midnight only) will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from the state Department of Health showed razor clams are safe to eat:
• Today, 5:33 p.m.; 0.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks.
• Friday, 6:05 p.m.; 0.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis.

On all open beaches, the daily limit is 15 clams per person. Each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container, and all diggers must keep the first 15 clams they dig, regardless of size or condition, to prevent waste.
