I haven't seen any posts here regarding anyone being checked for red snapper, but it seems like the Feds are patrolling the 3-mile limit writing people up. The biggest surprise to me is the state game wardens patrolling offshore and checking for red snapper. I would have thought they would not have done anything to discourage fisherman, based on their position of the ruling on the season and the assessment of the stock. Seems kind of crazy that the state would open the season 365 days in response to the ruling, but yet send a bunch of boats offshore to write tickets.
