Fishing Gear Technology 2 (1+1)
Theory
1. Development fishing gears and Fishing Technology: Evolution of Fishing gears; Mechanization of Fishing; Basic classification of fishing gears- Principle, Subsidiary and Auxiliary gears.
2. Classification of fishing gears and methods: FAO classification of fishing gear and methods of the world; International Standard Statistical Classification of Fishing gear (ISSCFG).
3. Fishing gear materials: Natural materials and Synthetic netting materials and their classification. Types and important synthetic materials used in fishing gears. Raw-materials for synthetic material;
4. Preparation of nylon (PA 6.66) material; Different types of fibres continuous fibre; monofilament, staple and split fibers and production of single yarns. Identification of synthetic fishing gear materials: Visual observation, water test, solubility test, burning test and melting point test.
5. Construction of twisted netting materials: Yarn, single yarns, folded yarns, netting twine, cable netting twine and cable netting twine of higher order; Construction of ropes and their higher order; construction of braided netting twines.
6. Yarn numbering system - direct system: Tex system Denier system and calculation of resultant Tex value. Indirect system: British count, metric count, runnage system and their conversion.
7. Methods of Preparation of knotted and knotless webbing; advantage and disadvantages of knotted and knotless webbings. Shape of mesh: diamond; square hexagonal and their measurement.
8. Properties of netting material: physical properties- Density, twist and amount of twist, Breaking strength-tenacity, & tensile strength, breaking length, abrasion resistance, elasticity, extensibility, water absorption &, shrinkage, sinking velocity, weather resistance, melting point and visibility. Chemical and Biological properties.
9. Floats – buoys – its materials, types their properties; Classification of floats: based on shape and materials; calculation of buoyancy. Sinkers – types, materials, properties- negative buoyancy.
10. Factors to be considered while designing /selection of fishing gears; Biological, Environmental, Oceanographical, Vessel characteristics and mesh size regulation. Choice of netting materials for trawl, gillnet and purse seine.
11. Classification of trawl gears. 2 seem trawl; 4 seam trawl and wing trawl. Design and construction of wing trawl. Rigging of trawl gear: Arrangements of bridles, sweep lines and attachment of ground gears: tickler chain, bobbins and rock hoppers and attachment of otter board
Practicals:
1. Study of net making tools; Knots and hitches used in net making.
2. Methods of net making: Hand braiding- Chain mesh method and loop methods of net making.
3. Shaping of webbing: baiting, creasing and reducing mesh size step by step.
4. Tailoring method: T and N direction of webbing; T-cuts, N-cuts, B-cuts and their combination. Joining of net pieces.
5. Net mounting –hanging coefficient, hung depth and their calculation. Selvedging.
6. Methods of net mounting: reeving, stapling and norselling.
7. Test the Physical properties of netting material. Visual observation, water test, solubility test, burning test and melting point test.
