Now it's all closed till June 1.

Over in the Gulf, the commercial guys can harvest grouper and red snapper year round until there quota is filled(this may change though as they can buy more quota if somebody wants to seel it to them). Yet the recreational harvest is closed for gag grouper until June(most likely all year), and red snapper is only a 2 month season. When our harvests are closed, they can still go out and get them even though ours is supposedly closed due to there spawning season. Why can coms harvest and we can't because of spawning?
