This manual provides an introduction to recreational shellfish harvesting for the Port Susan and the South Skagit Bay areas, along with information on bivalve shellfish biology, ecosystem services, and water quality. The preparation of this guide was funded with a Discretionary Fund grant from the Stillaguamish River Clean Water District (CWD) of Snohomish County. We would like to thank the CWD for its support of clean water and healthy shellfish populations in Snohomish County.
