Blue crab trap closure for Wakulla through Hernando counties starts July 20 Recreational and commercial blue crab traps must be removed from some waters of Florida's west coast before July 20, the first day of a 10-day trap closure. Blue crab traps may not be in state waters (shore to 3 nautical miles, including intracoastal waterways) waters of Wakulla through Hernando counties including all waters of the Ochlockonee River and Bay from July 20-29. These closures will give groups authorized by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) the opportunity to identify and retrieve lost and abandoned blue crab traps from the water.
