Recreational Fishing Regulations For 2025

A decision was reached recently to keep current recrational fishing regulations in place for this year during an Atlantic State Marine Fishery Commission meeting. Capt. Rob Newberry, chair of the Atlantic Fishery Association who has appeared before Kent County Commissioners numerous times over these issues, is not convinced the commission needs to take any action now or in the future. Ultimately they will reduce limits in recreational and commercial, adjusting seasons, setting limits and no-harvesting or no-targeting closures.
