A Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) order places the recreational scallop season start date at June 19 instead of July 1 for scalloping areas from the west bank of the Mexico Beach Canal in Bay County to the Pasco-Hernando county line near Aripeka. All other provisions governing the harvest of bay scallops will remain in effect for the duration of the order

HERNANDO BEACH - Gov. Charlie Crist has extended the license renewal period for commercial fishermen and seafood dealers for another three months due to the uncertainty and financial hardships caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

The extension to the end of Sept. 30 was urged by fisherman including dozens of Hernando Beach commercial fishermen who rallied earlier this week to talk about their current challenges.

"The commercial fishing industry needs some time to regroup because of misperceptions that Florida's seafood has been affected by the oil spill,'' Crist was quoted as saying in a news release on Friday.

"Our fishermen continue to harvest abundant amounts of fresh Florida seafood to supply fish markets and restaurants for people to enjoy, and we want to do whatever we can to help them continue to do that.''

The governor also announced that the bay scallop season will open 12 days earlier this year. That means the first day of scallop season will be June 19.

Boating Safety

2009-03-06T07:39:00.000-08:00

In light of the recent tragedy on the Gulf of Mexico, we at Pelican Marine would like to remind everyone of how important boating safety is.

It has always been our recommendation that everyone who intends to be present on a boat take a safe boating course. Even if you are not the primary pilot of the boat, should an emergency arise, you may need to know the "boating basics". The CG Auxiliary regularly holds safe boating classes. A list of some of the local Auxiliary Flotillas can be found on our website at www.pelicanmarinecenter.com under the community information link.

Be sure to always have all the necessary safety gear. life vests, flares, fire extinguisher, horn. If you are not sure as to what is required, feel to stop by Pelican Marine Center and pick up a copy of the USCG publication of the Federal Requirements and Safety Tips for recreational boaters.
