Beginning last Thursday (April 1, 2021), Western Dry Rocks located in the Florida Keys off Key West, will be closed to fishing until July 31st, 2021. The closure was advocated by the IGFA and implemented by the MyFWC Florida Fish and Wildlife to protect populations of permit, snapper, and grouper species that spawn in this small area. This closure is expected to improve recruitment and resiliency of these important fisheries. ![]()
To learn more about this closure, check out FWC’s video ➡️ youtu.be/jREUJFkFSsQ.
Wyatt Frankens recently submitted this 3.43-kilogram (7-pound, 9-ounce) smallmouth/largemouth hybrid Micropterus dolomieu x salmoides to potentially set the IGFA All-Tackle Record for the species. Wyatt is no stranger to large bass and was fishing on the Oh Ivie Reservoir when he hooked this amazing hybrid on a megabass swimbait. The record is currently pending review and awaiting approval.![]()
