 Abstract: The physico-chemical quality of these water masses in this system determines the biological production and consequently the development of the socio-economic activities of this environment. The objective of this study is to analyze the physico-chemical parameters and to assess the occurrence and abundance of fish species caught during dredging in order to deduce its effects on the hydrosystem. The physico-chemical parameters considered are pH, salinity (mg/l), turbidity (NTU), suspended solids MES (mg/L), transparency (cm) and dissolved oxygen (mg/ L), with an inventory of the species caught in the dredging area.At the end of the results, it mainly emerges that: (i) the pH and the salinity vary very little under the effect of the dredging while the TDS, the turbidity and the suspended solids are strongly influenced by the dredging and especially the discharge sediments. Thus, there is a downward trend in transparency of 55.50% on average against a suspended matter of +90.50% and a turbidity of +68.50% increasing. This influences dissolved oxygen. However, these variations are temporary and its expansion is very limited due to the variation of the tides (high and low). The evolution of dredges in water gives a new order of spatial distribution of fish species according to their character of dependence and/or tolerance to turbid waters and sometimes low in dissolved oxygen. The repopulation of marine species in the dredged environment is an indicator of an ecosystem suitable for the life biology of formerly extinct species.
