Subject Observations on the monsoon prawn fishery in Kerala
 
Description Not Available
The ban on trawling in Kerala from June 15th to
July 30th coincides with the southwest monsoon.
During the period fishermen venture into the sea
with their traditional/motorised crafts and gears
such as thermocol boats (Alapuzha) and
Thanguvallom (Ernakulam and Thrissur). The latter
is operated with outboard engines and operate up
to 8 km from the shore. The thermocol boats fish
very near the shore (up to 3 km). The gear operated
are ring seines or thangu vala and gill nets. The
unique phenomenon in the monsoon season known
as mud-bank or ‘chakara’ is characterised by calm
areas close to the shore.
