description The reported survey was conducted in the Kokcha River of Badakhshan Province, northeastern Afghanistan. The survey was carried out once in each season of 2021 by using a variety of fishing tackle, e.g., hooks and gill nets.

Sabzi Bahar was one of the sites that had the maximum number of fish — 30.69% followed by Baharak, 27.33%, and Pol-e-Bigam 22.50% and the minimum number of fish 19.29% were collected from the Shahr-e Naw site.
