Default Red snapper season
La. state season. As it stands now!!!!!!

*NOTE IMPORTANT CHANGES TO RECREATIONAL RED SNAPPER*
Recreational Red Snapper – Currently Closed.
  • Currently closed in state and federal waters.
  • Season scheduled to re-open in state waters only on the Saturday (April 12, 2014) before Palm Sunday in 2014.
  • State waters only season is weekends only (weekends are defined as Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) where the Monday of Memorial Day (May 26, 2014) and Labor Day (September 1, 2014) are included as weekend days.
  • Daily bag limit in state waters during the state waters red snapper season is 3 fish per person at a 16 inch minimum length.
Word has it the feds amended 30B which could have a big influence on this state season. Personally I hope not. It would be nice to have something in stone that I can start booking.

It was supposed to be 10 but I don't know if it was ever written into law. Kind of a "grey area"

State approved it, don't think the Fed ever did

Fed never approved it because of oil revenue and they will not set up state waters for fishing only. It is either state waters or not.

La. only has 3 miles at this time. The grey area is still in question. I will tell you if you are past the grey area you will get a ticket!
