Florida Fishing Regulations

Are no more complicated (or simple) than most other places. A good rule of thumb is to remember that most of the species in Florida waters have a size limit and a daily creel limit. The number of species you might hook up with while fishing on Amelia Island is too numerous to cover here, but we'll try and cover some of the more common ones that you might find on the end of your line.

	Bluefish	Minimum size 12" Limit 10 per person per day
	Flounder	Minimum size 12" Limit 10 per person per day
	Spotted Sea Trout	Not less than 15" or more than 20" except one fish over 20" per person per day. Limit 5 per person per day
	Weakfish	Minimum size 12" Limit 4 per person per day
	Red Drum	Not less than 18" or more than 27" One per person per day
	Spanish Mackerel	Minimum size 12" Limit 15 per person per day
	Black Sea Bass	Minimum size 10" Limit 20 per person per day
	Sheepshead	Minimum size 12" Limit 15 per person per day
	Whiting	No size or creel limit
