This study was designed to determine cost/return structures and economic efficiency of small scale marine fishing of the selected gears in Bangladesh. To achieve these objectives a total of 90 fishing units(firms) of which 30 gill net, 30 roke net and 30 set bag net fishing firms were selected. Data were collected from the boat owners and fishermen for the period of one year. The findings of the study revealed that the selected fishing gears were highly profitable. The annual profits of gillnet, roke net and set bag net were found to be Tk. 111,022, 75,525 and 147,241 for the selected gears. It is concluded that set bag net fishing was more profitable compared to the other two gears. Cobb‐Douglas production function analysis revealed that the most of the explanatory variables included in the model were statistically significant and had positive effect in increasing revenue from fishing business.
