Latest NOAA/NMFS proposal to be effective May 1st.

Directly from the document:

" The following measures for the recreational sector would be
implemented under the Preferred Alternative, as well as the other two
principal alternatives considered: The current seasonal prohibition on
the retention of GOM cod (for both private recreational vessels fishing
in the EEZ and federally permitted party/charter vessels) would be
lengthened by 2 weeks, with the resulting seasonal closure of November
through April 15; persons fishing on federally permitted party/charter
vessels would be prohibited from possessing more than 10 cod per day
(caught anywhere), a more restrictive limit than the current limit of
10 cod per day when fishing only in the GOM; and private recreational
vessels fishing in the EEZ and federally permitted party/charter
vessels would not be allowed to retain SNE winter flounder. "
