Description The results of an exploratory survey for the assessment of prawn resources conducted
along the south-west coast of India for a short period in 1967 are presented. The
trend in total catch as well as prawn catch showed a decrease from the beginning to
the end of the survey. During the survey, besides two trawl nets, a small try-net was
aslo used for testing the grounds. A non-parametric test was applied to the catches by the
two types of nets, the trawl net and the try-net, and it was found that the catch efficiency
of the nets was the same. The possibility of using such a try-net for exploratory surveys
and also for testing the grounds during commercial trawling is discussed.
