Fisheries / amateur fishing restrictions in Brittany

French term or phrase: détenir et utiliser des viviers flottants

[scroll down to the btm of the list]

C’est ainsi qu’il est STRICTEMENT INTERDIT de :
• VENDRE LE PRODUIT DE LA PÊCHE DE LOISIR (consommation uniquement par le pêcheur et sa famille),
• RAMASSER ET VENDRE LES VÉGETAUX MARINS,
• PÊCHER DANS LES PORTS,
• PÊCHER dans les ZONES CONCHYLICOLES. (Les parcs sont des espaces découvrants ou non du DPM concédés par l’État aux ostréiculteurs en contrepartie d’une redevance annuelle. Ils sont autorisés à y semer et cultiver des coquillages en surface ou dans le sable),
*****• DÉTENIR ET UTILISER DES VIVIERS FLOTTANTS,*****

-----------
As the heading shows, this is a list of what amateur fishermen are NOT allowed to do. There are several possible versions of "viviers flottants", and, not being a fisherman, I don't know which to choose. For the moment, I have "floating fishtanks" but have no way of knowing whether or not this is any more feasible than the even more unlikely-sounding (to me!) alternatives.

I'd be most grateful (as ever!) for suggestions - many thanks!
