If you don't mind, I would like to answer that question. It may seem innocuous, but it is an action that was very important in decreasing the fishing effort.
In my opinion, that action and reducing the size of traps are the two main measures aimed at reducing the fishing effort. It is important to understand that previously, every fisher had complete freedom. Some fishers even had 75 four-trap trawls. It is important to understand that when you have more trawls, you have fewer traps, but you also cover more ground. That was brought down to a minimum of seven traps per trawl. In addition, we imposed a maximum distance of eight fathoms, or 48 feet, between traps, and total trawl length is not to exceed 56 fathoms.
