The bill amends the Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act by updating section 48721 regarding fish possession limits. It establishes that individuals cannot possess more than the daily possession limit of fish at the location where they were caught or while in transit to their automobile or residence. The language has been revised to replace "his or her" with "the individual's" for clarity and inclusivity.

Additionally, the bill allows individuals to possess an extra two days' worth of fish that have been processed through canning, smoking, drying, or freezing, outside their residence. Inside their residence, there is no limit on the number of processed fish they can keep. The bill also clarifies that processed fish aboard a vessel or at dockside are considered to be in the individual's possession, and it reiterates that possessing illegally taken fish is prohibited.
