Red Snapper - Exempted Fishing Permit 2024

FWC has developed three separate Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP) projects that may give you opportunities to fish for (and keep!) Atlantic red snapper outside of the one-day (July 12, 2024) federal recreational season to get better data and test new, innovative ideas aimed at reducing dead discards (fish caught alive but die after release). EFPs are permits that allow harvest for certain purposes otherwise prohibited under current federal regulations.
