| Abstract | Diverse types of fishing gear and methods are employed in the Inland and Marine water bodies for the capture of fish from very early times in man’s history. Fish catching with simple methods are modified to meet the growing requirements depending upon the environmental conditions and availability of local material for craft and gear. The fishing techniques varied from region to region, while the basic principles remained identical the world over. Evolution of simple methods into modern commercial fishing techniques became possible with advancement in science and technology. Traditional fishing methods continue to exist despite the pressure of industrial fishing and contribute substantially to production. The acceptance of newer materials like synthetic fibre and mechanization substantially enhanced the catch efficiency in the Inland and marine water bodies. |
