Mechanisation of fishing operation in Karnataka
was initiated with the introduction of 30 to 43 feet
trawlers in 1957 for exploiting inshore demersal
resources including shrimps. Introduction of purse
seiners in the 1970s extended the area of fishing
operation and enhanced pelagic fish landings
significantly. Motorisation of traditional crafts like
gillnetters and longliners and encouragement of
offshore fishing beyond 50 m depth using bigger
vessels for duration of 12-15 days have effectively
increased the range and effort of fishing operations.
Further, financial institutions have extended loan
facilities for acquiring fishing boats which helped to
enhance the fleet strength.
