These proposed changes will come back before the Commission at its September meeting in Weston for final approval. If approved at that time, changes will apply in state and federal waters off Collier, Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Martin counties only, where the majority of barracuda population concerns have been voiced, and will include: Creating a recreational and commercial slot limit of 15 to 36 inches, Creating a recreational daily bag limit of two fish per person, and Creating a commercial vessel limit of 20 fish per day.
