November kicks off the third razor clam tide series of the season, after the WDFW announced that digging can resume starting on the first day of the month.

The department has recently approved five days of digs after testing confirmed that the clams are safe to eat.

There will be minus tides on each of the days, and depending on how the weather and surf develop, clammers may get their first good shot at the clams in the deeper sections of the beds.

Bryce Blumenthal, the recreational razor clam manager for the WDFW, recently reported that most diggers did well, but that during the second open season, bad weather made for tough digging.
