Pāua quota cut in half
South Island pāua divers will have their daily limit cut down by half from next month.
The current legal limit is 10 pāua per person or 20 pāua or 2.5 kilograms of minced meat during a multi-day fishing trip. The limits apply to both black and yellow foot pāua. From December 12, the limit will be halved to five per day or a maximum of 10 pāua or 1.25kg per person on a multiple-day fishing trip.
Fisheries Management's director, Stuart Anderson, said the new quota was designed to help the stock's depleted numbers recover after the 7.8-magnitude earthquake in 2016.
