The methodology of studying large inland waters such as lakes and reservoirs has been rapidly developing during recent years. However, obtaining sound qualitative and quantitative information on all significant ecospecies of fish represents still a challenging task, which is difficult to achieve in many localities. Many improvements of sampling and stock assessment techniques are still required. Fish stock assessment approaches differ vigorously in different countries and work groups and broader international cooperation and standardization of methods is very desirable.
