Title: Amendment 12 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico | |
Abstract: Amendment 12 would: Establish a minimum size limit of 28 inches (71.1 cm) fork length for banded rudderfish and lesser amberjack taken under the bag limits; establish a bag limit for banded rudderfish, greater amberjack, and lesser amberjack, combined, of one fish; and establish a 20-fish aggregate bag limit for reef fish species for which there is no other bag limit. Other proposed measures to reduce the minimum size limit for red snapper harvested in the commercial fishery and to eliminate a scheduled, automated size limit increase for the commercial red snapper fishery in 1998 were disapproved by the National Marine Fisheries Service after a preliminary evaluation of the amendment. | |
