Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of America, and South Atlantic; Reef Fish Fishery of the Gulf of America; Accountability Measure for Recreational Harvest of Red Snapper in Federal Waters off Louisiana
Published Date: 5/6/2026
Rule
Summary
In 2025, Louisiana’s private anglers caught more red snapper than allowed, so for 2026, the catch limit is lowered to protect the fish. This temporary rule runs from May to December 2026 and affects anyone fishing for red snapper in federal waters off Louisiana. It helps keep red snapper populations healthy without changing fishing fees or costs.
