Razor clam diggers must be careful By using care and following the rules, razor clam diggers - can do a lot to help insure an abundance of clams on ocean benches next year. Shellfish Biologist Terry Link of the Department of Fish and Wildlife says there are large numbers of young razor clams present on Clatsop County beaches, and their survival depends largely upon cooper ation from clam diggers. Even though it is against the law. Link says, some diggers are returning the small clams to the beach instead of keeping them. But most, he says , do not realize that about 80 percent of these clams have been injured in digging and will die. Juvenile clams are vulnerable to damage from handling, pressures caused in digging.or being washed out Regulations say the digger must keep the first 24 razor clams dug. regardless of size Swim lessons beginning at Heppner pool Swimming lessons for per son five, years of age and older are available at the -Heppner Pool beginning July .15 I-essnns cost $5 per person for two weeks from Tuesday throgh Saturday.

There are a number of dates of importance to hunters. or condition. The regulation is designed to prevent the wast age of smaller clams that die anyway if they are returned to the sand. Those smaller clams are the ones that will average four inches next year and will constitute the bulk of next year's catch. Each year on the average. Link says. 165,000 clams are washed away, eaten by sea gulls or left injured to die in the sand by careless diggers. This year, because of the larger than usual number of small clams there is a potential for a greater than average wastage. And each one wasted is one that won't lie there to harvest next year. It is not usually difficult to avoid digging the small clams. Link says. The size of the "show" or dimple in the sand is usually an indication of the size of the clam nnd it takes only a little bit of concentra tion and practice to learn what to look for. When a digger makes a mistake and comes up with an undersized clam he should he a sport and keep it as part of his bag limit. He should not discard it and take another thus killing two clams. Each female clam has six to ten million eggs, Link says, but only a few survive the five to 16 week free-swimming stage to settle to the txittom and become established in the beach Razor clams have no ability to move horizontally in the sand, so the location at the time of "set" determines where thai particular clam will remain until it dies, is dug or is washed out that mean a lot today.
