Fork length ranged from 12.3 to 18.3 cm. The overall ratio of males to females was 1:2.38. The length-weight relationship for all samples was described by the following parameters: estimated as a=0.030 and b=2.706. Fish aged 2-6 years were found. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters for the whole population were: L∞:23.2 cm, W∞:148.19 g, k=0.118 year-1 and t0=-6.480 year. Growth performance index (Ф) was 1.80.
