First Razor Clam Dig of the Season Is Tonight at Mocrocks
Digging is allowed noon to midnight, with low tide at 7:18 p.m. Copalis follows Tuesday and Wednesday, and Mocrocks again Thursday.
Washington's first razor clam dig of the season is tonight, Monday, October 26, at Mocrocks Beach, with low tide at 7:18 p.m. at minus 1.2 feet. Digging is allowed only from noon to midnight; the best time is one to two hours before low tide.
The rest of the series: Copalis on Tuesday, October 27 (low tide 8:01 p.m.) and Wednesday, October 28 (8:47 p.m.), and Mocrocks again on Thursday, October 29 (9:38 p.m.). Long Beach and Twin Harbors remain closed because of marine toxins, and the department expects fewer digging days than usual at Copalis and Mocrocks this season.
Diggers need a valid Washington license that covers razor clams. Toxin tests can cancel a dig on short notice, so check the department's emergency rules page before driving to the coast, and bring a lantern or headlamp for the evening tides.
