Subject Seerfishes
 
Description The seerfishcs are inshore pelagic fishes, distributed mainly in
areas within 60 m depth contour. The mean annual seerfish catch
of 17,852 t for 1964-81 was accounted for almost equally by the
east coast (49.66%) and the west coast (50.34%). While the bulk
of the east coast catch came from Tamilnadu (47.91%) tod Andhra
Pradesh (40.34%), the States of Kerala (35.48%), Maharashtra
(23.44%) and Gujarat (23.14%) contributed the bulk to the west
coast. The progressively increasing trend from 1964 to 1981
owes to the increasing number of mechanised gilhietters operating
for the larger catch including the seerfishes.
