Subject Tuna fisheries
 
Description Tuna and tuna-like fishes are under-exploited resources of Indian EEZ. Exploitation
of oceanic tuna and billfishes are possible only by longlining and purse seining.
Existing deep sea fishing vessels in India are mostly trawlers equipped for bottom
trawling for shrimps and fishes. Most of them are stem trawlers and few are double
riggers. Hence the deck layout is not suitable for either longlining or purse seining.
Both longlining and purse seining for oceanic tuna and billfishes are specialized
techniques which require special onboard facilities, deck layout and deck machineries
like line haulers, chute, shooting and hauling accessories for longlining and special
powerful purse winch, power block etc. for tuna piu'se seining.
