  abstract = {{T}raditional fishery management schemes have gained increasing recognition worldwide. {I}t can be explained by a better compliance to ancient cultural practices, still rooted in present-day coastal communities despite globalization and modern livelihoods. {T}his revival is widespread and welcome by policy makers, scientists, and the communities themselves. {H}owever, current environmental and socio-economic contexts are often not conform to ancient-time situations. {B}aselines are different. {E}ffective adjustments of traditional practices may be advocated. {R}e-establishment of traditional schemes 'as such' warrants further investigations and modern quantitative assessment and management approaches can help. {A} demonstration is provided here for a rural {P}olynesian island that faces declining marine resources. {R}ecently, local fishers discussed the implementation of a traditional system (called ra over bar hui) to preserve the island lagoon resources, based on the rotational closure of an arbitrary 50% of each lagoon subdivision. {U}pon the fishers' request who questioned a traditional scheme that has not been applied for decades and seeked some scientific approval, we used systematic conservation planning ({SCP}) tools to explore potential optimisation pathways. {A}ll quantitative conservation objectives being equal, {SCP} suggested reserve sizes and opportunity costs on average 7 and 5 times lower than the traditional design. {T}raditional management federates communities and is strongly encouraged, but fishers are now aware that effective alternative designs are possible. {A} hybrid design mixing traditional practices and data-based optimizations is advocated. {S}imilar findings and recommendations can be expected in other regions.},
