    Abstract

    Saurashtra coast is situated in the Southwestern part of Gujarat which covers the coastal districts of Porbandar, Junagadh, Rajkot, Dwarka, Bhavanagar, Jamnagar, Amreli, and newly formed Gir somnath. From 1967 to till date there was marked improvement in the fisheries sector of this region. In 1967, trawling was introduced and since then the number of trawlers has increased from 900 to 10,000 (CMFRI, 1978) along the coast.
