“…Despite the fact that the Fishers were not privileged as other areas, they were well informed of the COVID-19 diseases, its symptoms and precautions because unconcerned attitude of people leads to spread of the disease (Zhong et al2017). Supporting Wasave et al (2021) findings, Liu et al (2022) reported that better educated Fishers with higher income had more knowledge of COVID-19 in Fuqing, China. On the contrary, Fishers in Kashmir Valley though illiterates, were well informed of COVID-19 and so they acted accordingly to reduce spread of the disease (Siddique et al 2022).And in fishing communities in Bangladesh, the crisis reduced demand for fish that brought about a fall in the price of fish negatively affecting Fishers livelihood ( Hoque et al 2021).…”

The study was conducted with the aimed of identifying the impact of COVID-19 lock down on Artisanal Fishers and fishing operations. Data was collected through face-face interview. Fishers who had 15 years of fishing experience and above were involved in the research. Results showed that Fishers were well informed of COVID-19 pandemic. There was no case of COVID-19. Fishers could read and write as they had the basic primary education. Restriction on movement had major setback on the fishing operations of fishers and intermediaries given the low fish price and reduced movement of fish traders. Landings were very good during lock down. Poor before lock down dwindled down to good after the lock down due to human activities.
