Florida anglers will have another chance to fish for Atlantic red snapper this fall under a newly approved 14-day season beginning in October 2026.
NOAA Fisheries approved the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s revised Exempted Fishing Permit, clearing the way for the added opportunity in Atlantic waters.
The approval expands Florida’s fall access to the popular reef fish, though the available announcement did not specify the season’s exact opening and closing dates.
