In my state, Florida, there is no limit on lion fish. The state wants them fished out of our waters. They are incredibly bad for Florida’s ecosystem. I have tried spearing them myself. Interestingly enough right now till about the last of September there’s a lion fish catching tournament, with prizes and tiered rewards. The only thing is you have to have a fishing license but that’s easy to get.
As far as I can tell, there isn’t limits. there still might be licensing or other restrictions required (like a fishing liscense), but there typically isn’t daily limits. I know someone who designed an automated trap for lionfish in florida, it’d only trigger for lionfish and not other types of fish.
