Can you eat the fish you catch in Navarre Pier?
That is a health question, and it is answered officially rather than by us. Florida Department of Health publishes the fish consumption advisory covering these waters, where most Florida freshwater fish are fine to eat, and a mercury threshold triggers the advisories you can look up by water. Read it before you keep a meal — we give no eating advice.

What a Florida license costs, and who is exempt

What size fish can you keep in FL?
It depends on the species, and several have slot limits rather than a simple minimum. Open to harvest today: sheepshead, mangrove snapper (gray snapper), yellowtail snapper, mutton snapper. Seasons here change mid-year by agency order, so the status is re-checked every morning.

Where these numbers come from

Nächste CO-OPS-Station ist Pensacola, rund 34 km westlich an derselben Golfküste — näher als die verworfenen Fälle Destin (80 km) und Islamorada (50 km), aber weit genug, dass Tide und Wassertemperatur hier als Näherung zu lesen sind.

No one types these in by hand. If a source goes quiet, the page says so instead of showing you yesterday.
