Razors are a great example of a "valuable" fishery when all those external costs like meals and beer are added in. And, it just came to me, that it is also one of the few "low user cost" fisheries that WDFW pushes. You don't need a special (boat, truck, gear). It is a family opportunity where the kids can rather easily get involved. Has lots going for it.

And WDFW/the State does (or did) invest quite a bit in monitoring and sampling.
