(Fish Processing Technology) Chairman : Dr. N. Neethiselvan Department : Department of Fish Processing Technology College : Fisheries College and Research Institute, Thoothukudi. Year and University : 2017, Tamil Nadu Fisheries University, Nagapattinam. The study dealt with evolving dry artificial fish baits for trap fishing utilizing Tuna Red Meat (TRM), Poultry Intestinal Muscles (PIM), Shrimp Head Powder (SHP) and Fish Gelatin (FG) with the view to replace the usage of costly edible fishes such as sardines and squids and nutrient rich shrimp shell wastes (SHW) as baits. A total of 69 baits; 23 Type-1 baits with TRM as the major ingredient; 25 Type-2 baits with PIM as the major ingredient and 21 Type-3 baits with FG as the major ingredient were prepared. SHP was used as the common attractant in Type-1 and Type-2 baits. Minor ingredients such as tapioca flour, Kadukkai powder (seed powder of Terminelia 9
