Title A note on the monsoon fishery for threadfin
breams off Cochin
 
Creator Nair, K V Somasekharan
Jayaprakash, A A
 
Subject Threadfin breams
 
Description The threadfln bream fishery by shrimp trawlers, constituted by Nemipterus
japonicus and N. mesoprion, is subject to great seasonal and annual flucuations,
the total catch, as well as the catch rate, being highest during SW monsoon. It
appears from the catch trends at various depths that nemipterids, which normally
inhabit in the depth zone 75-100 m, migrate to 35-40 m during monsoon, coinciding
with upwelling. The hydrographic conditions which might be causing this
shift of the population is discussed.
