Abstract:Along the coast of Tanzania the term dagaa usually refers to any small fish that are caught by various fishing gear such as beach seine, ring net, purse seine, lift net, dip net, scoop net, cast net and even trawl net and stake trap. Depending on the fishing method used, catches of dagaa may therefore consist of very different types of fish. In Tanga Region, the purse seine and ring net have become the most important methods of catching-dagaa in recent years. The present account assesses the importance of the purse seine to the dagaa fishery of Tanga for the period 1971 to 1978. Map, ref., tab.
