Description For the past few
years, purse seiners from Goa were reported to be
operating in coastal waters of southern Maharashtra
and therefore Rampani fishery was defunct. From
2010 onwards, strict implementation of Monsoon
Fishing Ban from June to August was observed in
Maharashtra. The revival of the Rampani fishery was
attributed by the fishermen to this ban. However,
the extension of mackerel even to the northern
districts of Maharashtra and further towards Gujarat
coast could also be due to the high cyclic abundance
of the species, as observed in the past.
