Visits Visit Date Remarks Status
1st Visit Date 14 Sep, 2021 Fishermen usually use coal tar, wood tar and tanning solution. Tanning solution is made from cutch- an extract from wood. Chemicals: Various chemicals used for preservation are - Potassium bichromate, copper nepthenate, copper sulphate, cuprous oxide Completed
2nd Visit Date 21 Sep, 2021 Most important among these fishing gears are trawls, purse seines, lines, gillnets and entangling nets and traps. Among the most significant developments which affected the historical evolution of fishing gear and practices are (i) developments in cr Completed
3rd Visit Date 28 Sep, 2021 Preservation may have side effects on the physical properties such as stiffness, flexibility, extensibility, elasticity and breaking strength. Completed
4th Visit Date 05 Oct, 2021 In olden days fishing was not having much importance as there was no demand for fish. Earlier fishing was restricted to a particular community but it is not so now. In order to meet the increased demand, fishing is now carried out industrially. Fishi Completed
5th Visit Date 12 Oct, 2021 The anchored gill nets made of hemp were used along the South Canara coast. Coconut husks are used as floats and heavy stones as sinkers. However, at present the gill nets make use of synthetic twines. Drift nets are one of the most efficient indigen Completed
6th Visit Date 19 Oct, 2021 Fishes are classified based on the sources from which they are obtained as natural fibres and manmade fibres. Natural materials are obtained either from plants i.e. vegetable fibres or from animals -animal fibers. Vegetable fibres have a cellulose ba Completed
7th Visit Date 26 Oct, 2021 This is the first step in the identification of a method. A small piece of netting yarn is put into a vessel filled with water after tying a simple overhand knot. Air bubbles in the material must be squeezed out by hand under water. Preferably a wett Completed
8th Visit Date 02 Nov, 2021 Vegetable fibres and most of the man-made fibres made of regenerated cellulose burn rapidly in the flame and continue burning after removed from the flame. They have an afterglow, the smell of smoke is similar to that of burning paper and the residue Completed
9th Visit Date 09 Nov, 2021 Sheet bend knot/English knot – It is made by passing the end of one line through the eye or bight of the other around the eye and under itself. Double sheet bend knot – It is a similar knot of single sheet bend but with the end rope led twice undern Completed
10th Visit Date 16 Nov, 2021 Constant and accurate mesh size Dirt does not adhere so much to knotless netting which is easier for cleaning and quick drying. Floats and sinkers Completed
11th Visit Date 23 Nov, 2021 However, the main drawbacks of machine made nets are: they cannot be baited – decrease the net – or creased – increase the net, and machines can’t braid fly meshes on to net pieces which is necessary for the construction of trawl nets. But the above Completed
12th Visit Date 30 Nov, 2021 • Overhand knot – It is formed by passing the end of the line over the standing part and through the eye. • Square knot/Reef knot – This knot is formed of two overhand knots with the ends always falling in line with outer parts. Completed
13th Visit Date 07 Dec, 2021 Single and two boat seines are used in many parts of India to catch shoaling pelagic fishes. In the case of gill nets, the length, depth and mesh size varies depending on the type of fish to be caught. The anchored gill nets made of hemp were used Completed
14th Visit Date 14 Dec, 2021 • Thermocole: (Expanded polystyrene) is light in weight and highly buoyant. It cannot withstand high pressure. Should be used only in surface. • Sponge plastic: These are light, do not rot, do not absorb water, have high buoyancy, but pressure resis Completed
15th Visit Date 21 Dec, 2021 Tanning solution is made from cutch- an extract from wood. Chemicals: Various chemicals used for preservation are - Potassium bichromate, copper nepthenate, copper sulphate, cuprous oxide (Testalin). Completed
16th Visit Date 28 Dec, 2021 Preservation may have side effects on the physical properties such as stiffness, flexibility, extensibility, elasticity and breaking strength. Completed
