Deep sea fishing is also expected to begin from Thursday at Kasaragod.

Last time, mechanized fishing was not up to the expectation. This time, country boat fishing done during the monsoon season has also been affected adversely. This time, the fishermen ae venturing out into the sea with the hope of good income yet, there is still a fear lying in the background – Satish Kunder, President, Malpe Fishermens Association
