After the introduction of ring net in Kozhikode
district in 1989, there was a gradual reduction
of other traditional pelagic gears in this area. At
present, ring net is the main gear for the exploitation
of pelagic resources like oil sardine and mackerel.
One of the problems faced by the fishermen
operating the ring net is the damage of the gear
caused by dolphin when it tries to prey up on the
fish. Now the fishermen have found out an
indigenous way to save the net from this menace by
encircling the ring net by another net. This method
has been in use by some boats for the last four to
five years, and of late it has become very popular.
