SUMMER FLOUNDER, SCUP, AND BLACK SEA BASS MANAGEMENT BOARD
(February 2, 2010)
Move to recommend to the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) the 2010 black sea bass recreational measures be set at 12.5” minimum size limit, 25 possession limit, and a season of May 22 – Sept 12 contingent on NMFS increasing the TAL for black sea bass. If the recommendation is adopted by NMFS the states would adopt those same measures approved by NMFS for the 2010 fishery.
Motion by made Mr. Munden and seconded by Mr. Augustine. Motion carries.
The federal closure is technically over in early April, but the proposed rule is expected shortly for the 2010 season.
