The bill S. 337 proposes an amendment to Section 50-13-640 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which governs the possession limits of blue catfish. The amendment establishes a daily limit of seventy-five blue catfish for all state waterways, excluding Lake Marion, Lake Moultrie, and the upper reach of the Santee River, where the limit remains at twenty-five blue catfish per day.

This change aims to regulate blue catfish fishing more effectively across the state while maintaining stricter limits in specific high-traffic areas to ensure sustainable fish populations. The bill will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
