When various developmental measures are being undertaken to increase
the fish production in India, it is pertinent to examine if the fishing methods
employed are quite efficient. In marine fishing, the efficiency of fishing
methods in general depends on the ability of the fishermen to locate the
fishing grounds where the fish are abundant and to catch them there. In
case of some of the pelagic fisheries like Indian mackerel, in the exploitation
of which the fishermen rely on the arrival of the fish shoals in the inshore
area, the fishing efficiency will depend on the ability and skill of the fishermen
to identify the time and period when the mackerel shoals are most
abundant in the inshore waters and to concentrate most of their effort at
the time to catch the fish. The present paper provides a method for measuring
quantitatively the fishing efficiency of the fishermen of the Karwar area with
regard to the mackerel fishery. Though the results of the quantitative
analysis will specifically relate to the efficiency of the Karwar fishermen,
it is believed that the same will be applicable to the fishermen of the entire
Mysore coast, if not the entire Indian coast.
