This research study was intended to provide information in order to model an ideal construction of Gillnet fishing practices in PPI Karangsong, in order to support the feasibility of optimum catch. Fish Landing Base (PPI) Karangsong is the most active fishing port in Indramayu. The dominant fishing activity in the Karangsong PPI is gillnet fishing at around 71.4% of the total fishing units. The type of gillnet utilized in Indramayu is commonly called the ‘gillnet millennium’ and it is constructed out of Poly Amide monofilament. The gillnet vessel itself has a hull shaped in the form of a hard chin bottom. Based on this research, it can be concluded that each region has specific fishing unit characteristics that vary in accordance with the conditions of the waters.
