The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) decided Thursday to reopen the recreational harvest season for snook on Sept. 17 in Florida’s Atlantic waters and maintain a catch-and-release snook fishery in Florida’s Gulf waters. Only catch-and-release fishing for snook has been allowed statewide under FWC executive orders, which have been in effect since January, to protect snook populations affected by prolonged cold weather in Florida earlier this year.
