Enjoy a week of razor clam digging! Diggers ages 15 and older must have a current 2014-2015 fishing license to harvest razor clams on state beaches. If you would like to participate in the dig, you can purchase a license online, here, and from license vendors around the state.
Under state law, diggers can take 15 razor clams per day and are required to keep the first 15 they dig. Each digger’s clams must be kept in a separate container.
Are you interested in learning how to dig clams? We will have local professionals out on the beach on Saturday and Sunday morning giving lessons on the beach off of the Bolstad Beach Approach Pavillion. You MUST pre-register and provide YOUR OWN:
• clamming license
• shovel or clam gun for digging
• bucket or net to keep your clams separate from others’ limits
Please dress for the conditions: coats or jackets, hats, rain gear, etc. (see image below for reference)
