We welcome you to keep any fish you wish, within legal limits. We urge catch and release on any fish you do not intend to eat, such as grouper, which are a highly stressed fishing species. We recommend you only keep what you will eat to help ensure that there will be plenty of grouper for future generations to enjoy.
