FishRadar Global Fishing Regulations — recreational rules by jurisdiction
Recreational fishing rules (bag limits, size/slot limits, seasons, total prohibitions)
for 47 jurisdictions across 20+ countries, curated and re-verified by
FishRadar against official agency sources. Every rule carries a
source_url (official agency page) and, where available, a source_citation
(statute/rule number that outlives URL reorganizations).
Refreshed 2026-08-21 from the August 2026 re-verification wave, which corrected 12
rules (4 of them enforcement-relevant). New in this refresh: the prohibited boolean —
species that may NEVER be taken (total prohibitions, e.g. dusky grouper in Türkiye) are
now explicit instead of being inferable only from notes.
