Florida Looking For Permit Fishery Input
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has scheduled a series of public workshops regarding possible changes to Florida permit regulations.
The FWC wants to hear what people think about establishing a commercial permit trip limit, extending state regulations for permit into federal waters, establishing a permit-tagging program, eliminating the commercial harvest and sale of permit, and making permit a catch-and-release-only fishery.
The Commission encourages everyone interested to attend the workshops, which all take place from 6-8 p.m. as follows:
Monday, Sept. 28
