The Length-weight relationships (LWRs) are very important to data for accurate estimate of populations in stock menagement. In this study, the length-weight relationships of some fish in Göynük stream, Murat River (Bingöl/Turkey) were examined. The LWRs and condition factor (K) of Cyprinon macrostomus, Gara rufa, Barbus lacerta, and Acanthobrama marmid were analyzed. LWRs was estimated using the linear regression model. LWRs were obtained as TW = 0.013L2.98, 0.057L2.40, 0.016L2.79 and 0.029L2.82 for C. macrostomus, G. rufa, B. lacerta and A.marmid, respectively. The b values acquired in the four fish species ranged from 2.13 (G. rufa-Male) to 3.34 (B. lacerta-Male). The K of the fish species varied from 0.90 (A. marmid-Male) to 1.27 (G. rufa-All), indicating that most of the fish were in good condition. However, C. macrostomus and G. rufa were better condition than B. lacerta and A. marmid. The study has provided baseline information on the LWR and K of the fish species in Göynük Stream. The datas that would be useful to adapt the adequate regulations for sustainable fish stock estimation in the stream for fishery biologist.
