dc.description.abstractThe current study was carried out to documentdifferent designs of small-scale fishing vessels andgears from selected centers of Nagapattinam toKanyakumari districts, along the coast of TamilNadu. Personal interviews and direct observationwere used to gather primary data. The two majorgroups, wooden and FRP fishing vessels weresegregated, out of which 12 types were sub-groupedfor design documentation. Based on the type, areaand method of operation, small-scale fishing gearswere grouped as gillnets, hook and lines, and trawlnets. In total, 12 types of fishing vessels and 9different types of fishing gears were recorded.Design parameter of each fishing vessel and gearwas recorded and technological development insmall-scale fisheries was observed. The outcome ofthe study is a comprehensive database of selectedsmall-scale fishing systems, which can be the sourceof primary input for researchers, governmentagencies, and other stakeholders to formulateguidelines and policies.
