Abstract

The catch composition, the size composition of the fish and the
seasonal variation of the fishery show that the catch trend in the trap fishery has
slightly changed, for the better, at both Keelakarai and Rameswaram with the use
of prawn peelings (wastes from the recently developed prawn industry) as bait.
A brief observation' on the biological aspects of Siganus canaliculatus, a dominant
constituent at present, is also given.
