Abstract

Simple Summary

Poyang Lake, the largest freshwater lake in China, is one of the two lakes naturally connected to the Yangtze River, playing a vital role in maintaining the ecological balance and biodiversity of the Yangtze River. The government has enforced a fishing ban policy to restore and protect local fish populations. In this study, we assessed the effectiveness of the early stage of the fishing ban by examining and analyzing the fish communities in Poyang Lake and its surrounding waters, and investigating the impacts of environmental factors on fish distribution and growth between 2022 and 2023. These findings not only deepen our understanding of the current status of fish resources in the Poyang Lake basin but also offer a scientific foundation for the restoration and management of the water ecosystem.
