Two employees of the FWC join my podcast this week to go over the new regulations that have been put into place for harvesting Goliath grouper. Dr. Bob Ellis and Erica Burgess walk us through every detail of these new regulations. We talk about why this specific number of 200 fish was chosen, how they came to the conclusion of the permit price, and how these harvests will help to better understand the populations of grouper for the future.
