  • 2021-03300 — Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic; Coastal Migratory Pelagic Resources in the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic Region and Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico; Possession Limits for Federally-Permitted Charter Vessels and Headboats

    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) issued a final rule to modify possession limit regulations for federally permitted charter boats and headboats operating in the Gulf of Mexico. The rule allows fishers to take two daily bag limits during trips longer than 30 hours, with permits and trip details properly documented, enhancing trip efficiency and reducing wasted catches. Additionally, the rule updates reporting requirements for fishing quotas during emergencies, simplifying the process for using paper records. Public feedback showed support for these changes, noting improved regulatory clarity and economic benefits for the fishing industry.

    Simple Explanation

    The government made new rules for people who catch fish on special fishing boats in the Gulf of Mexico, saying they can catch more fish if their trip is longer than 30 hours, and made it easier to report fishing details when things go wrong. This helps cut down on wasted fish and makes things clearer for fishers, but people still have some questions about how the new rules work and if they are fair.
