If you care about the Texas Trout Fishery you either need to:
1) attend a meeting
2) make a phone call 
3) send an e mail 
All the information you need to voice your opinion is listed below:

  • Spotted Seatrout – Change the bag limit from five fish to three fish per day and change the slot limit from 15-25 inches to 15-20 inches. One fish over 25 inches would be allowed to be kept per day and would count towards the three-fish bag. These regulations would go into effect coastwide.
