Bonefish and Tarpon Harvest Reopens April 1

The temporary Florida closure of recreational harvest of bonefish and tarpon is set to expire shortly.

Caveat from the FWC:

Even though the FWC is again allowing the harvest of bonefish and tarpon, the agency encourages anglers to enjoy catching and releasing these important Florida game fish species and to handle and release these fish carefully to help ensure their survival.

They should both be declared gamefish and protected from any recreational harvest.

If Belize can do it, why can't FL? Seems crazy that they are not.
