Anyone going to be in Long Beach this Sunday digging for clams?
-
Nobody clamming at all?
-
I'll be in westport :tup:
-
I'll be in Longbeach on Sunday/Monday. First timer...we'll see what happens.
-
Not this weekend, but just booked a room for the march dig. Havent been clam digging in about 10 years so it should be fun.
-
ill be there, first time too sooo... :chuckle:
-
Any of you guys coming from the Bremerton area?
Also, I'm not digging but I'll be out their till Monday. If you see a canopied titan with a yellow lab and Airedale, most likely by a fire on the beach, stop by and say hello.
-
I will be in Westport sunday clam digging with the wife and maybe tom, that's if he shows up.
:chuckle:
-
Ill be digging long beach sunday. Never dug clams down there, always on the northern beaches. Should be fun since were gonna be down there anyways.
-
Over on long beach the cranberry approach = little clams
-
There's an outside chance my wife and I will hit one of the 2 beaches Sunday.
Tip: Last time I was at Long Beach, people were getting small clams. We went way North, past the lighthouse looking house, and got into large clams.
I guess you never know...but I thought I would pass that on.

I'll be in a maroon 2008 Suburban with wife, 2 teens and a 2 year old on a leash (not a dog).

Before we started digging at Grayland we always dug north of Ocean Park right up by the lighthouse looking house, nice clams there and if ya dig between the signed white posts you'll get nice big clams in no time flat!! It'll be the spot where there's nobody else digging. :chuckle:

Funny! This is right in front of our place. Parking lot! They need to paint parking stripes on the sand in this location.

We will be up by the lighthouse.
Black dodge nitro and a toyota rav4.
Will have the grandkids, so it should be a hoot.

Great fun learning as a child how to dig razors at Copalis Beach. Once learned, it seemed too easy. 40-some years later, that may not be the case, but I'm not driving way out there to stand cold and wet on the edge of the surf to chase bivalves.
I somehow prefer the hard shell clams of Puget Sound and Hood Canal. I go there when I want chowder or pasta vongole, No movement by the prey. It's just like picking up nuggets of gold, but more edible.
I may be in Long Beach for the weekend but I'm not diggin' (unless my boss or the kids make me).
Good luck all!

Grayland or Westport for me.

Our normal quiet low key mid February vacation is jacked with this cloudless 65 degree opening clam dig. Its cool to see everyone enjoying themselves. Time to find a new place for us and the dogs to enjoy a vacation and a beach to ourselves. No real complaints at all. The past two years it's been dead here on this weekend which is great for us and the pups, this year is a different story. Maybe next year we will head north and explore the San Juan islands for the weekend. Hope everyone got their clams. Looks like about 15 minutes is all a lot of these folks need for their limits. :tup:

Weather was great and the digging fantastic today at Grayland. Beach was packed too.
15 minute or less limits of really nice clams. The drive to and from the beach was another matter though. On the way out we were delayed over an hour by a two car wreck near Brady's Oysters. Traffic was backed up at least halfway to Aberdeen. Then on the way back again we were delayed and unbelievably, there was another two car accident withing 100 feet of there the first one was.
Stupid drivers and their smart phones, or something like that.

My daughter and I will be at Grayland.

We saw the accident shortly after it happened on our way out, that traffic was back up bad.

There was a grand Cherokee on the beach here that rolled on the sand, broke a c-clip axle, lost tire and wheel, windshield and all the driver side.... Driver was no where to be found when the sun came up.

The accident happened about twenty cars in front of us. The black SUV had an elderly couple in it from what my wife says. My buddy was caught in the aftermath and didn't make to the beach until after low tide.

The second wreck was a pickup and a small white car. We left the beach about 45 minutes after low tide, because the first wreck delayed us from getting to the beach until after low water. They were putting the 2nd two rigs on tow truck when we came back by Brady's.
