Razor Clam Digging Closed

The 2022-23 Washington recreational razor clam season remains closed on ALL beaches. Marine toxin levels have increased above the action level. We will continue testing, but at this time do not have an estimate of when digging can proceed. Before a beach can be opened for the harvest of razor clams, state health protocol requires that all razor clam samples collected from that beach must test under the action level, in two tests that are at least 10 days apart. Test results are added to the state’s fish and wildlife department website.    https://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/basics/domoic-acid/level
