Stone crab fishing is very popular especially in
the southern part of the state.
If you decide to harvest some for yourself, there
are some rules to remember.
Stone crab claws must be at least 2¾ inches long to
be harvested legally.
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.
The season lasts until May 16th.
Florida’s stone crab rules also extend into federal
waters.
