The commercial and recreational harvest season for stone crab claws in Florida opens on Thursday. Stone crab claws must be at least 2 3/4 inches in length to be harvested legally, and claws may not be taken from egg-bearing female stone crabs. Recreational harvesters are allowed to use up to five stone crab traps, and there is a daily bag limit of one gallon of claws per person or two gallons per vessel, whichever is less. Commercial stone crab regulations and licensing information is also available online at MyFWC.com/Rules (click on "Fishing - Saltwater"). The season will remain open through May 15th.
