FWC will be holding two virtual flounder workshops to gather public input about management of the flounder fishery. A stock status update suggests that the flounder fishery statewide has been in a general declining trend in recent years and is likely overfished and undergoing overfishing on the Atlantic coast of Florida.

These workshops will start at 6 p.m., EDT and will be on June 2 and June 4. Connect to the meeting by going to http://fwc.adobeconnect.com/mfm/. A number to call into will be on the screen once you are logged into Adobe Connect.

If you can’t attend one of the virtual workshops, a video workshop will be available at https://myfwc.com/fishing/saltwater/rulemaking/workshops/
