Length-weight relationships were estimated for 11 fish species caught in Baekya Island, Korea. Samples were caught in depths of<15 m by fish pots between November 2008 and July 2009. The sampling gear, fish pots, is a widely used as commercial fishing gear in shallow waters of the region. The most abundant families were Hexagrammidae (20.7%), Cottidae (18.5%), Tetraodontidae (14.8%) and Scorpaenidae (13.3%). Estimates for parameter b of the length-weight relationship (W=aLb) ranged between 2.454 and 3.361.
