As a 10 -year resident of Kona Paradise, I strongly urge the council to adopt this measure to give equal
protection to Pebble Beach. It's fair and balanced and much needed
Reso. No. 308 -10 urging DLNR to adopt rules presented by the West Hawaii Fisheries Council regarding
tropical fish collection
1. Allows a reef area at Pebble Beach to be closed to aquarium collecting while opening a similarly sized area at
Keauhou for limited collecting by lottery thus maintaining a balanced proportion of open to closed fish collection
areas.
2. Creates a 'white list' of species that can be collected by the aquarium trade (all other species are prohibited),
and a bag limit for large reproductively mature yellow tang.
