The proposed rule changes for the Gulf-Atlantic fishery: 1) set king mackerel commercial vessel trip limits in state waters equal to commercial vessel trip limits in adjacent federal waters, 2) establish a transit provision to allow transport of legally-harvested king mackerel through closed areas and permits the landing of these fish in closed areas, 3) clarify that state waters are closed to commercial harvest of king mackerel when adjacent federal waters are closed, and 4) remove references to commercial king mackerel fishing season dates in FWC rule. The proposed rule would also create a reference in 68B-12.006, FAC (Other Prohibitions) to the proposed mackerel tournament donation permit, outlined in 68B-2.010.
