Abstract: A study was carried out from November 2011 to October 2012 in Tudakul reservoir, Uzbekistan. A total of 178 pike-perch,
Sander lucioperca (Linnaeus, 1758), were sampled including 81 females and 97 males. The ages, total lengths and weights of the samples ranged between 1 to 6 years, 25 to 74 cm and 72 to 4.945 g, respectively. The relation between the total length (TL) and weight (W) was described by equation W = 0.003*TL
3.2639 (r=0.99). The relationship between the total length (TL) and the standard length (SL) was described by linear equation: TL = 1.0885*SL + 2.1825 (r = 0.99). The mean back calculated total length was 26.4 cm at age I; 44.5 cm, II; 53.4 cm, III; 67.4 cm, IV; 70.4 cm, V; 76.2 cm, VI. R. Lee’s phenomenon was not manifested asthe fishing company is oriented to the catches of large fish.
