A characteristic shore seine fishery is practised along southern Maharashtra, Goa and northern Karnataka region mainly for catching Indian mackerel Rastrelliger kanagurta. The mackerel shoals occurring close to shores during post monsoon season from November to January are spotted by the experts among the fishing community and caught with the shore seine popularly known as Rampani. The net is operated from the beach by means of a boat laying the net in semicircular manner, consequent to which both ends of the hauling ropes are pulled simultaneously on to the beach. About 50-80 people are needed for operation of the net so that the process of shooting and hauling is carried out as fast as possible. The net can be operated only in shallow, calm waters where sea bottom is smooth.
