| Abstract | Stake nets constitute the most important indigenous fishing gear used for the exploitation of penaeid shrimp resources in the estuaries and backwaters of Kerala. Management and conservation measures for the fishing gear by adopting an optimum codend mesh size are proposed so as to minimize fishing morality of juvenile shrimps. This communication deals with the selectivity experiments conducted using condend of three different mesh sizes viz.12,14 and 16 mm with a codend cover of 10mm mesh size. |
