Description 477-484
The Length-Weight Relationships (LWRs) of seven live-bait fishes namely, Rhabdamia gracilis, Zoramia leptacantha,
Verulux cypselurus, Gymnocaesio gymnoptera, Chromis viridis, Chrysiptera brownriggii and Lutjanus kasmira found in
Lakshadweep waters were determined in the current study. The specimens were captured from Agatti Island lagoons, using
lift nets and encircling nets at depths ranging from 2 to 10 m. This data collection spanned from January 2021 to March
2022. The estimated b values ranged from 3.09 to 3.38 for G. gymnoptera and Z. leptacantha, respectively. The coefficient
of determination (r²) ranged from 0.99 (G. gymnoptera) to 0.89 (V. cypselurus). The study provides insight into the
biological details of these live bait fishes, which support traditional tuna pole and line fishing in Lakshadweep waters.
