Which species can I take with an Experimental Fishing Permit?

EFP, Commission, permit

Any target or incidental take of species under the authority of the EFP must be approved by the Commission as part of the special conditions of the permit. Applicants must provide a list of species (target and incidental) expected to be taken under the EFP, including the proposed amount and disposition. Take of any species designated as protected, threatened, or endangered is prohibited.
