Florida’s Red Snapper Season opened on June the 1st, so fishermen will be able to target the very popular fish through the end of next month

Florida’s Red Snapper Season opened on June the 1st, so fishermen will be able to target the very popular fish through the end of next month.

Recreational Red Snapper Fishermen will get a total of 103 days of fishing for Red Snapper this year.

It’s the longest season since the state was delegated management of Gulf red snapper.

The season includes both a 61-day summer season and a 42-day fall season.

The Gulf red snapper summer season will run through July 31st.
The Fall season will include all weekends September through November, Friday through Sunday with longer fishing opportunities around holidays like Veteran’s Day and Thanksgiving.

In case some of the weekends are ruined by rain, the state could add additional fishing opportunities at the end of the season.

This season applies to recreational fishermen fishing from private vessels in state and federal waters and to charter vessels that do not have a federal reef fish permit and are limited to fishing in state waters only.

For those interested in participating in this year’s Gulf red snapper season, don’t forget that red snapper fishermen must get the Gulf Reef Fish Angler designation on their license.
