Description Until the middle of nineteen sixties fishing
for marine finfishes and shellfishes along the
Andhra Pradesh coast used to be carried out
employing indigenous non-mechanised crafts.
Subsequently trawlers and later mechanised
vessels operating gillnets came into use which
resulted in the increased fish production. Use
of outboard engine on indigenous crafts for
reaching fishing grounds is a recent feature of
near the coast fishing. The different kinds of
non-mechanised and mechanised crafts and
gear employed in the region are dealt with in
this article.
