Abstract Due to the motorisation of traditional crafts and the resultant increase in the fuel consumption, the size of fishing craft operated by the fishermen has assumed importance. This paper describes the characteristics of small and large craft fishermen, and the extent of technological gaps among them. The study also analyses the influence of the characteristics of small and large craft fishermen on their technological gap scores. Further, the operational constraints of fishermen in the use of improved technologies are given along with suggestions to bridge the technological gaps.
