Artisan fishing is a term sometimes used to describe small scale commercial or subsistence fishing practises. The term particularly applies to coastal or island ethnic groups using traditional techniques such as rod and tackle, arrows and harpoons, throw nets and drag nets, and maybe traditional boats. It does not usually cover the concept of fishing for sport, and might be used when talking about the pressures between large scale modern commercial fishing practises and traditional methods, or when aid programs are targeted specifically at fishing at or near subsistence levels.
Artisan fishing is a beneficial practice because it is more dependable, less costly, and less intrusive than most contemporary fishery techniquescitation needed. Unfortunately, it is subject to difficulties in the export process due to inadequate budgeting on refrigeration and other preservation techniques. However, the most important goal of artisan fishing is domestic consumption, as it's usually implemented in poor coastal areas where there's little access to land-based farming and native residents are dependent on the local artisan fisheries' harvest for their food.
