Abstract India being the meeting ground of three major bio-geographic realms (Indo-Malayan,
Eurasian and Afro-tropical) contributes a fish fauna of diverse habit and nature. Further we have various inland water resources such as rivers with a combined length of 45,000 km, estuaries 2.7 million ha, reservoirs 3.15 million ha and a net work of canals 1,26,334 km long. Thus the diverse fish fauna with the different water resources has led to the development of an array of fishing methods. Fishery resources include the priced major carps to the catfish, minor carps and the hill stream fishes.
