catch fishing
Catch fishing is an important traditional activity in India, especially in coastal regions and along major rivers like the Ganges and Brahmaputra.In India, local fishing products include various types of fishing nets made from natural fibers, traditional fishing boats known as \“dinghies\“, and handmade fishing hooks. These products are crafted using age-old techniques passed down through generations.
Many Indian fishermen still use sustainable fishing methods that have been practiced for centuries. The fishing industry provides livelihood to millions of people across coastal states like Kerala, Gujarat, West Bengal, and Tamil Nadu.
Local markets in fishing villages offer fresh catch daily, and traditional fish drying methods are still widely used to preserve fish for longer periods. Indian fishing communities have deep cultural connections to their profession, with many festivals and rituals centered around fishing activities.
