Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Federal commercial fishing regulations in the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic are now available on the free Fish Rules Commercial mobile app. The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council and the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council have partnered with Fish Rules, LLC to create an app to host up-to-date, accurate commercial regulations. Now available for free in both the Apple Store and Google Play Store, this mobile application is ready for download immediately.

Up until now, federal commercial fishing regulations have been hosted in the additional information section of the recreational Fish Rules App. Now that the Fish Rules App Commercial is available, those commercial regulations will be removed from the recreational app. We encourage you to transition to the Fish Rules Commercial App where you’ll find much more information relevant to commercial fishing.
It’s also important to know that the app will function dockside and offshore when you’re out of cellular range.The app populates with regulations and updates associated with each federal permit that is relevant to you. The app hosts species-specific information including the amount of quota harvested, trip limits, and size limits. The app also hosts information on permit conditions and managed areas.

We want to ensure that the Fish Rules App is as accurate, helpful, and user-friendly as possible. Don’t hesitate to contact us directly with questions, comments, and/or suggestions:
