| Abstract: | Bombay duck and Pomfret are found in abundance on this coast which is why we were taught about the fishing practices and methods employed in harvesting these two species. Raapan net is not used for pomfret and Bombay duck; this is used for fish like bangda (Indian mackerel) and kati (Mustached Anchovy), and the seabed is shallower in depth. We use dole nets here. We were given this knowledge in school, but now the school has been taken over by the zilla parishad (district government) and doesn’t teach such skills. None of the teachers have such knowledge now. |
