Spotted seatrout will be closed to recreational harvest, November 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, in Florida's Central East Management Region, which includes all state and federal waters from Palm Beach through Volusia counties.

Spotted seatrout is one of Florida's most popular inshore fisheries. This closed season was re-established in 2020, within the Central East Management Region, to address declining trends in the stock and benefit of spotted seatrout during times when they are particularly vulnerable to harvest.
