2026 Gulf County Bay Scallop Season Closed

FWC has announced the closure of the 2026 recreational bay scallop harvest season in the Gulf County Zone due to very low bay scallop abundance. While scallop harvesting is prohibited this season, Gulf County waters remain open for other recreational activities, including fishing, boating and swimming.
