Fishing will take place along the 156 miles of the Indian River Lagoon (from the Jupiter to the Ponce Inlets).
Lines in the water at 12 AM on 9/14 ~ Lines out of the water at 11:59 AM on 10/12
Also, taking place during the same time frame is our inaugural Lionfish Derby! A state-wide, no-holds-barred lionfish harvesting extravaganza. Join us in removing these tasty and devastatingly invasive fish and help preserve our reefs for future generations.
Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission encourages removal efforts of lionfish. Since 2014 Florida has removed over 191,000 of the invasive species. Help save our reefs and enter your numbers for a chance to win cash prizes for quantity of lionfish harvested.
