Gov. Rick Scott Responds To Overlimit Redfish Gaffe
Yesterday, BrevardTimes.com was the only Florida media outlet which publicized Governor Rick Scott's statements that he had caught and cooked redfish over the legal limit.
The story then went viral within the last 24 hours amongst Florida sport fisherman across the State of Florida, including websites like BigFendFishing.net.
Today, the Governor responded about the gaffe to NBC Orlando affiliate WESH Channel 2, stating that each person only kept one redfish, and that he had thrown back the 40 inch redfish.
