The current study was carried out to document different designs of small-scale fishing vessels and gears from selected centers of Nagapattinam to Kanyakumari districts, along the coast of Tamil Nadu. Personal interviews and direct observation were used to gather primary data. The two major groups, wooden and FRP fishing vessels were segregated, out of which 12 types were sub-grouped for design documentation. Based on the type, area and method of operation, small-scale fishing gears were grouped as gillnets, hook and lines, and trawl nets. In total, 12 types of fishing vessels and 9 different types of fishing gears were recorded. Design parameter of each fishing vessel and gear was recorded and technological development in small-scale fisheries was observed. The outcome of the study is a comprehensive database of selected small-scale fishing systems, which can be the source of primary input for researchers, government agencies, and other stakeholders to formulate guidelines and policies.
