NOAA Fisheries Announces 2018 Recreational Rules for Summer Flounder

June 3, 2018 by Wayne Creed Leave a Comment

NOAA Fisheries announces management measures for the 2018 summer flounder, black sea bass, and scup recreational fisheries.

Summer Flounder 2018 Recreational Measures

NOAA is continuing “conservation equivalency” for the summer flounder fishery. This means they have waived the federal recreational bag limit, minimum fish size, and fishing season, and fishermen are subject to regulations in the state where they land.

Regulation 4 VAC 20-620-10 et seq.

Minimum Size Limit: 16 1/2 IN.

Possession Limit: 4 per person

Season: Open year-round

Capture Citation: 6 Lbs

Release Citation: 26 IN.

State Record: 17 lbs 8 oz, 1971, Charles E. Cross

The above flounder restrictions apply to Virginia tidal waters, except that in Virginia’s Potomac River tributaries the minimum size limit, closed season, and possession limit will be the same as established by the PRFC for the mainstem Potomac River.
