Help finding current NAFMC rec seabass regulations

[Scotsman]

Can someone to point me in the right direction for a link outlining the current regulations concerning recreational fishing for seabass in Fed waters off the VA coast in the NAFMC region. I can find the SAFMC regs no problem, just not North. Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Hamish

If you intend to carry the BSB into state waters to get home (don't we all do that), then I see no value added in looking at the federal regs for BSB. Right now they match state regs so no issue. But not all species seem to match. That link Bob provided shows we can keep 8 golden tiles. But the state regs stay 7. So my question is we bother with the federal regulations for fish controlled by VMRC. Fed reg says tog no limit. Well that will get you in trouble once inside state waters even if caught in federal waters. Why can't the state and feds get together and provide us one set of regs to avoid mass confusion.
