Description At attempt is made to analyse the bottom trawl fishing data collected by 91
cmises of FORV Sagar Sampada (1985 - '91). The vessel trawled in 544 stations
spread over both the coasts up to a depth of 100 m and catfishes appeared in 54
stations with catch 3 -2401 kg/hr. The dominant species occurred beyond 50 m depth
belt was invariably Tachysurus thalassinus whereas shoaling species like T.
tenuispinis and T.dussumieri are reported from grounds less than 50 m. The resource
has better abundance in 51 -100 m depth belt along northwest and northeast region.
