Spotted seatrout will be closed to recreational harvest Nov. 1 through Dec. 31 in the Central East Region (see lighter blue area on the map on Florida's east coast), which includes all state and federal waters from Palm Beach through Volusia counties. Spotted seatrout are one of Florida’s most popular inshore fisheries. This closed season was re-established in 2020 for the Central East Region to address declining trends in the stock and benefit spotted seatrout during times when they are particularly vulnerable to harvest.
