Oct. 23 to Oct. 31 with a 15 fish limit; and , Nov. 1 to Dec. 31 with a 15 fish limit.
WTF?
and...
The season applies in the Atlantic Ocean between Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, Buxton, North Carolina and the U.S./Canada border. The regulations apply to federally-managed waters, not in state-managed waters (those withing three miles of the coast) – except for boats with federal black sea bass charter/party vessel permits. For them, the date applies wherever they fish.
SO.....???????????????????????? We start May 15th ????????????????? Need an enigma to decipher. :-)
