FLORIDA — The recreational harvest of flounder in all Florida state and federal waters will close Oct. 15 and remain closed through Nov. 30, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) has announced.

According to the FWC, the annual closure helps protect flounder during the period when pre-spawning aggregations form, ensuring more fish are able to reproduce each year and sustain healthy populations.
The season will reopen Dec. 1.
