dc.description.abstractCost of the fishing gears plays an important role to make fishing activity economic. Fishermen throughout the world, understandably unwilling to wait for the slow process of science to provide a solution, have 'taken matters into their own hands', experimenting on their own with various techniques (Jefferson and Curry, 1996, Prajithetal., 2014). Use of river stones as gillnet sinkers is a traditional approach by the fishermen of Saurashtra coast of Gujarat, India, to reduce the gear fabrication cost. This smallĀ­ scale business is mainly pertaining to Gir Somnath district of the state, especially in Veraval and nearby locations. From this region, use of river stones as gillnet sinkers was first reported by Manoharadoss et al in 1996. This investigation reports the changes happened to this small-scale sector in the past 25 years.en_US
