Hydroacoustic monitoring (SIMRAD EY 500 split beam echosounder, 120 kHz) was performed in four Polish coregonid lakes in which commercial catches of vendace, Coregonus albula (L.) decreased dramatically over the last decade. It has been shown that in two of the lakes the hypolimnion, which is the natural habitat of vendace, is devoid of fish. In another the fish is abundant, but its body size is too small to be caught. In yet another there is a healthy population of vendace, but the abundance of cyprinid fishes is ten fold higher than that of vendace. The competition for food probably limits natural reproduction, and thus the biomass of adult vendace. Oxygen deficits in deeper layers, especially during fall, are responsible for the disappearance of the fish from the lakes
