Abstract

About two-thirds of the total marine fish catch comes from exploited pelagic fisheries. The three \nmoa imDortant pelagic fisherie* are the oil sardine, mackerel and Bombay duck which together account \nf^r about 65 per cent of the yield from pelagic resources. The balance comes from other numerous \nnelaeic stocks which are being exploited at present. A critical assessment of each of the exploited pelagic \nresources has been made in this paper in order to estimate the probable magnitude of potential yields \nderivable from them.
