Method used in this study was qualitative, while several techniques, including the field observation, participant observation, and semistructured
interview or deep interview with informants were applied in this study. The results showed that the fishermen of Pangandaran
village have knowledge and technique using ‘the jaring arad’. It has been recorded 11 fish species have been predominantly caught by
fishermen of Pangandaran village by using the jaring arad. Various fish species are classified by the fishermen based on morphological,
color, and behavior. The season time of fishing can mainly be divided into two seasons, namely the West Wind Season (angin barat)
between January and March, and East Wind Season’ (angin timur) between May and August. The West Wind Season is perceived as not
good for catching fishes due to a lot of rains, big waves, and little fish cough. Unlike in the past, today most fishermen get problems to
predict time of the West Wind Season and The East Wind Season that is perceived as good time for catching fishes in the sea due to
unpredictable changes of weather and climate.
