I will be in FL this week, supporting your dive shops and charter boats to the best of my ability.
The big question: Do I need a FL Saltwater Fishing License to spear Lionfish??? I WILL NOT be harvesting any other species, and I do not intend to bring any remnants to the surface (if I do see & shoot one). I only want to help the natural residents of the reefs that I may visit.
If yes -
IF the charter boat captain or operator has a fishing license, does it cover all of the divers on the boat, so an individual license may not be required???
===========
I didn't see any references to this when using the search function... Not sure if this has been covered before.
Thanks.
