I will send an email to MDWFP and inquire. I will post the response. I was informed that once outside of boundaries it did not apply by a warden. Of course, this was dealing with creeks. North of 304 on hurricane and North of clifton on musaacuna creek. Not sure about flooded land spilling outside of the boundary. Not trying to misinform anyone, that's why I used the words "if I'm correct". And no, the shortest fish I've kept so far has been 12 1/2" inside the boundary. Be nice to know for sure and it will go well with the topic here.
