Pudumanikuppam near Madras is the only major fish landing place of the district where both mechanised and indigenous fishing units land their catches. 18%of total fish landing has been accounted by the traditional fisheries sector. With maximum catch per unit of effort, Matha valai and Eda valai are in operation for a longer period and is the most suitable gear for the pelagic shoaling fishes especially scads and oil sardine.
