(2) Transit of Undersize Fish - The size limit requirements of this rule will not apply to fish lawfully harvested from waters outside of Biscayne National Park when such fish are transported directly through Biscayne National Park waters with gear appropriately stowed. Transit shall be direct, continuous and expeditious from waters outside Biscayne National Park to the place where the vessel is regularly docked, moored, or otherwise stored. For the purpose of this subsection, appropriately stowed means hooks cannot be baited, and spear shafts shall not be inserted into any spearing device. All hook-and-line gear, spearing equipment, nets, and other harvesting equipment must be secured in a manner that makes their immediate use impracticable.
