Summary The present study describes the length-weight relationships (LWRs) were determined for four fish species, collected from the Brahmaputra and Barak river basins in northeast India using cast nets (2.5 × 1 m; 10–15 mm mesh size) and gillnets (30 × 0.9 m; 5–10 mm mesh size), from June 2016 to July 2017. The b values in LWRs were determined as 2.70 for Badis tuivaiei Vishwanath & Shanta, 2004, 2.93 for Canthophrys gongota (Hamilton, 1822), 2.62 for Glyptothorax botius (Hamilton, 1822), and 3.22 for Gogangra viridescens (Hamilton, 1822).
