Red snapper season ends July 20

Posted on July 20, 2018

The last day of the recreational red snapper season for both Gulf state and federal waters is today (Friday, July 20).

This season includes those fishing from private recreational vessels (who must sign up for the Gulf Reef Fish Survey and have Gulf Reef Fish Angler on license), and for-hire operations that do not have a federal reef fish permit (who may only target snapper in state waters and must have State Gulf Reef Fish Charter on license).
