The purpose of the proposed rule changes is to alter the bag limit for black bass in Orange and Lochloosa Lakes Fish Management Areas (Alachua County) from three fish per day outside of the protective slot limit of 15 to 24 inches in total length (all fish between 15 and 24 inches must be released) to three fish per day, only one of which may be over 24 inches in total length and the protective slot limit would remain unchanged. The effect would be to enable the agency to better manage fisheries resources.
