Alternative management measures, such as a slot size (i.e., fish can only be retained when their length is between an upper and lower limit), cumulative length limits, or a first fish rule, have been proposed to the GMFMC as strategies for reducing fishing mortality and discards in the recreational reef fish fishery (GMFMC, 2004).
