May commercial crabbers/commercial watermen in FL use trotlines?

Is your revised question about Florida trotline regs?   If so, please refer to the Southeast Regional Crabbing forums, in the rules and regs section.

Thank you so much for the info, I really appreciate you taking the time to reply.

But I'm wondering with the moratorium on commercial endorsements in Florida that use pots and the huge price for transfers.  Do commercial crabbers/commercial watermen need endorsements to use trotlines in order to sell their catch in Florida?

7. Subparagraphs 1. through 6. shall not apply to any trap used to harvest blue crabs for other than commercial purposes, which trap has a volume of no more than 1 cubic foot and is fished from a vessel, a dock, or from shore.
(b) Dip or landing net.
(c) Drop net.
(d) Fold-up trap.
(e) Hook and line gear.
(f) Push scrape.
(g) Trotline.

sorry i still don't understand
I'm aware of the need of a SPL to sell crabs.
