Seasonal hand line fishery for yellowfin tuna at Colachel
2017
In Tamil Nadu, the oceanic tunas like skipjack
and yellowfin tuna are exploited mainly by multiday
drift gill netters. However, in Colachel,
Kanyakumari, there is a seasonal fishery targeting
yellowfin tuna of medium size weighing around 30
kg, with hand lines that are operated from multiday
trawlers. This is an additional income for both the
fishermen and the trawl boat owners.
