Mank jesyon ka mennen nan twòp lapèch ak pi piti pwason nan trape an. Manm fanmi Paulino (Vilaj Enipein nan Pohnpei, Federal Etazini nan Mikwonezi) egzaminen trape yo kèk nan yo ke yo pral vann bay lòt manm nan kominote vilaj yo. Pechè yo pral souvan trape pwason siplemantè pou yo ka vann sa yo pa ka manje pou jenere revni adisyonèl pou fanmi yo. Gen enkyetid k ap grandi nan mitan gouvènman an Pohnpeian ak konsèvasyon kominote ki komèrsyalize a ap ogmante nan lapèch Reef Pohnpei a se ki mennen ale nan itilizasyon durabl resous ak yon popilasyon pwason diminye.

Lack of management can lead to overfishing and smaller fish in the catch. Members of the Paulino family (Enipein Village in Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia) examine their catch some of which they will sell to other members of their village community. Fishermen will often catch extra fish so that they can sell what they can’t eat to generate additional income for their families. There is growing concern among the Pohnpeian government and conservation community that the increasing commercialization of Pohnpei’s reef fisheries is leading to unsustainable resource utilisation and a declining fish population.
