9-8-16 FWC New Rules For Atlantic Gray Triggerfish

9-8-16 FWC New Rules For Atlantic Gray Triggerfish

Several Atlantic gray triggerfish management measures approved at FWC meeting

At the September meeting in St. Augustine, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) approved several changes to gray triggerfish management in Atlantic state waters.

Temporary gray triggerfish changes were put into effect in November 2015 via an Executive Order set to expire in October 2016. The approved changes for gray triggerfish will put these temporary changes into rule as long-term management measures. Gray triggerfish changes include:

Reducing the recreational and commercial minimum size limit in Atlantic state waters to 12 inches fork length.

Reducing the statewide importation and sale minimum size limit to 12 inches fork length.

Creating a recreational bag limit of 10 fish per person in Atlantic state waters.
