Getting ready for American Red Snapper & Gag Grouper 2020 season
As we know all too well the coronavirus is severely limiting us from doing so many things we really want to do.
Fishing is no exception.
Many of us fish on headboats. For federally permitted
for-hire vessels/headboats the American Red Snapper (ARS) season and Gag Grouper season begins June 1, 2020. ARS season will close at 12:01 August 2, 2020. Gag Grouper will remain open the remainder of the year.
Due to the required social-distancing load limits will be severely restricted. Most headboats are completely sold out for the entire month of June, and most of July.
Suggest booking ASAP, and be sure to check the availability due to cancellations. Seven spots just opened up on the Florida Fisherman ll overnight (39) hour 6/16 trip. These trips have a two day possession limit (4 ARS, 4 Gag Grouper) they will fill quickly.
Why is Red Snapper & Gag Grouper seasons so popular; so highly anticipated?
Let's take a look:
