This report discusses public interaction with personal-use fisheries. It also discusses reasons for razor clam violations and means taken to try and decrease them. Finally, it gives the total harvest and age composition data, and contains the results of a survey of clam diggers on Clatsop County beaches for 1965.
Razor clam catches from Clatsop beaches (Tillamook Head-Columbia River) were sampled regularly from March through September and periodically the rest of the year. Diggers were interviewed for number and age composition of clams harvested and the distribution and number of diggers. Data from beaches south of Tillamook Head were collected...
Razor clams are found in isolated areas all along the Oregon coast. However, 90% of the harvest takes place on the Clatsop Countty beaches. Along the rest of the coast, digging is sporadic and of minor importance. This report summarizes the data for 1967 for several beaches south of Seaside....
