CFEC posted proposed regulations to allow pot gear in the Southern Southeast Inside sablefish fishery (C61C) in response to the October 25th letter from the Board of Fish requesting CFEC conduct a regulatory review of the fishery. If the proposed regulation is adopted, the Board of Fish would take up any regulatory actions under its authority at the 2018 Southeast Finfish meeting.
The proposed regulation is here:
