Zusammenfassung:Ecology plays a vital role in producing a diversity of lifestyles, customs, and culture in India, with coastal Maharashtra or the Konkan belt demonstrating this aptly through its characteristically heavy monsoon that is interdependent on, and co-creates water bodies. The creation of sustainable water bodies in turn, bolsters the coastal fisheries of the region. Fish is a favourite and central part of the local meat economy that depends on almost daily consumption, with fisheries therefore constituting the chief element of coastal economy. This article based on ethnographic research describes and analyses the viewpoints of local inhabitants to fish and fisheries through proverbs and phrases encountered in the vernacular.
