A fisherman or fisher is someone who captures fish and other animals from a body of water, or gathers shellfish.
The fishing industry has a significant place in the Indian economy as a dollar-spinner. It is sustained largely by life-risking, hard-working and socially ill-placed fisherfolk. Their fishing techniques are not very modern and their standard of living is poor.

Kanyakumari, formerly known as Cape Comorin, is a town in Kanyakumari District in the state of Tamil Nadu in India. Kanyakumari lies at the southernmost tip of mainland India (the southernmost tip of India as a whole being Indira Gandhi Point in Andaman and Nicobar Islands). The nearest major city is Nagercoil, the administrative headquarters of Kanyakumari District, 22 km (14 mi) away. Kanyakumari was one of the important towns of the ancient Tamilakam (Sangam period), and is now a popular tourist destination.
