Abstract

The large pelagic fish catch in Goa over the decade varied from 3,095 t in 2011 to 13,247 t in 2013. Their percentage contribution to the total large pelagic fish landings of the country ranged from 1.4 in 2016 & 2018 to 7.0 in 2013. Purse seine is the major gear targeting large pelagic fishes such as tunas, seerfishes, barracudas and queenfishes. Fishery trends, crafts and gears involved in exploitation, seasonal pattern of landings, species composition, onboard handling and preservation of large pelagic fishes landed in Goa are described.
