The annual spiny lobster sport season is held annually on the last
consecutive Wednesday and Thursday of July each year. This year
the sport season begins at 12:01 am on July 25 and ends at 11:59
pm on July 26, 2007. A saltwater fishing license and a lobster permit
are required to participate in the sport season. The cost of the
fishing license for Florida residents is $13.50 and the lobster
permit is $2. Both can be purchased at any of the Tax Collector's
offices. The bag limits are 12 per person per day with the exception
of Monroe County and Biscayne National Park where the bag limits
are 6 per person per day. The possession limit on the water is equal
to the daily bag limit, and off the water is equal to the daily
bag limit on the first day and double the daily bag limit on the
second day. Possession limits are enforced on and off the water.
