King Mackerel Season Opens With New Rules
The King and Spanish Mackerel season runs July 1 to June 30, 1984, from the North Carolina Virginia border to the Texas Mexico border. Regulations under the FMP aim to prevent overfishing and reduce user conflicts, with quotas for recreational and commercial fishing and size standards for Spanish Mackerel and Cobia. Violators face fines up to 25,000 dollars and seizure of catch. NMFS enforcement urged amid ongoing investigations into May 6 closure violators.
