State or federal water

Florida state waters on the Atlantic run from shore to 3 miles out; beyond that is federal water. Which side of that line you fish on can change the season and the limits.

What deep sea fish can I keep in Hollywood in October?

Under Florida's rules you can keep amberjack, king mackerel, mahi-mahi, tuna, wahoo and cobia. For red snapper and grouper it depends on the dates or whether the boat holds a federal permit. Sailfish and marlin can legally be kept, but only within strict rules: Sailfish must measure 63 inches, lower jaw to fork, and in federal waters the boat needs a federal HMS permit. Blue marlin must measure 99 inches and white marlin 66 inches, lower jaw to fork, and the boat needs a federal HMS permit. Seasons change, so check each fish page or ask the captain before you keep one.

Where do state waters end off Hollywood?
