No one should have any difficulty buying fresh Gulf of Mexico red snapper for dinner anytime in the foreseeable future. It’s what they call a harvest fishery – you go out there, they bite. They’re not hard to find,” Steve Rash, who owns Water Street Seafood in Apalachicola, Florida, said.
That assessment was confirmed by the recent so-called Great Red Snapper Count – a two-year scientific study conducted by Texas A&M’s Harte Research Institute. Researchers reported to the U.S. Congress in October that there are up to three times as many red snapper living in the Gulf of Mexico as scientists previously estimated.
