Harbors & Fishing: Fish which is harvested from Indian
Ocean can not be matched by any other in quality and
taste; it’s named as Worlds Best Ocean with less
contamination. Due to Sri Lankan geological and weather
condition, presence of quality fish in our sea is
unlimited. Clean and deep water and plenty of small fish
and food availability and good climate condition for
breeding are main reasons for this. So, fishing harbors
are situated all over
Sri Lanka and supply is vast. We
in Sri Lanka have two ways of fishing. Long Line fishing
by ships (More than 59 ft are considered as ships)
timing 1 to 3 months, big boats (41 to 59 ft) timing 1
to 3 weeks. Hand Line by big boats, small boats (40 ft)
timing 2 days to 1 week. Mostly all the long liners
preserve fish in Chill bath (Water tanks with chill
water). Short time fish is preserved by block ice. |
