Description The use of fishing methods varying from simple traps to large trawlers
and from hand lines to sophisticated purse seines is a typical feature
of marine fisheries in India. The regional and seasonal variation is so
vast that the developmental agencies and administrative machinery are
often handicapped in deciding priorities on modernizing the traditional
tools. A document as attempted here, would form a piece of vital information
for the R&D agencies. The traditional gear operated in different regions
of the Indian coast are classified based on the mode of operation and an
exhaustive listing along with local names is attempted. Besides,
contributions to the marine fish production separately by traditional and
modern craft are brie flu noted.
