| Dusky GrouperOfficial source | PROHIBITED — retention banned — MADDE 6- (1) Çizelge 1’de yer alan türlerin, denizlerde ve içsularda avlanmaları tamamen yasaktır. | ||
| TOTALLY BANNED in Türkiye — may never be taken or kept, at any size, in any season. Release immediately. 🔴 This rule covers ONLY Epinephelus marginatus (orfoz). LAGOS (Epinephelus aeneus) is a DIFFERENT species and is legal at 50 cm with a 1 June – 31 August closed season. Our species catalog currently lists "Lagos" as an alias of this banned entry — treat any "Lagos" match here as unresolved and check the fish’s identity against the authority before keeping it. | |||
| Greater AmberjackOfficial source | 1/day | min 30 cm | May 16 – Apr 14 |
| Sarıkuyruk (Seriola dumerili): minimum 30 cm, 1 fish, closed 15 Nisan – 15 Mayıs. 🔴 Our catalog lists "Akya" as an alias of this entry, but AKYA is Lichia amia — a different species with a different limit (40 cm). Verify which fish you have before keeping it. | |||
All species combined
- maximum 5 kg or 3 fish total per day — The "Alıkonulabilir Miktar" column of Çizelge 7 is NOT a per-species daily bag. It is the total an angler may carry away, regardless of how many days were fished. Count-limited species caught together are treated as one species: total ≤ 3, provided no single species exceeds its own allowance. Weight-limited ("kg") species: ≤ 5 kg total, single or mixed. A single fish over 5 kg is lawful on its own; and if the largest fish is set aside and the rest weigh ≤ 4 kg, the catch is within limits. A 5% undersize tolerance applies to length limits.
