The Gulf Council would like to gain a better understanding of what's happening with red snapper in the Gulf. The Council recognizes that as active fishermen, you may notice trends or interesting things that the scientists and managers may not be aware of yet.
We rely on your on-the-water expertise to guide our current understanding of the red snapper stock. The information you provide through our Fisherman Feedback Tool will help to inform scientists and managers as they conduct and review a stock assessment on red snapper.
Please submit your responses to our Fisherman Feedback Tool for Red Snapper
Responses are due by 5:00 PM, EDT on August 21, 2026.
Thank you for taking the time to enhance our understanding red snapper in the Gulf. Your knowledge leads to better, more informed management decisions.
