Amberjack, gray triggerfish close June 1 in Gulf state waters

 

The recreational harvest of greater amberjack and gray triggerfish in Gulf of Mexico state waters (shore to 9 nautical miles) closes June 1 and will remain closed through July 31, reopening Aug. 1.

In federal Gulf waters, greater amberjack and gray triggerfish will also be closed June 1 through July 31.

Seasonal harvest closures help conserve Florida’s valuable greater amberjack and gray triggerfish populations and improve these fisheries for the future.
