Description:
The length - weight relationship and condition factor of Citharinus citharus citharus was studied for a period of twelve (12) months from Lake Kainji, Nigeria. Nine hundred and eighty nine (989) fish samples (Citharinus citharus citharus) with total length ranging from 100mm to 530mm and weight ranging from 31.00g to 2250.00g were analysed. The results showed that the values of a, b and r were 0.0039, 3.2134 and 0.8997 respectively. The condition factor(K) values varied from 2.9 to 4.5, which means that the growth pattern of the fish is based on the value of 'a'. the fish species are also living well in the Lake as the 'K' are greater than one.
