However, there is currently a decline in fish catches in Lake Sepunjung. This study was conducted to determine the existing condition of the lake, influencing factors, and formulate a management strategy for Lake Sepunjung. The methods used were field observations, interviews and literature studies. The analysis used included analysis for water quality, descriptive analysis and SWOT analysis. The results of this study showed that the ecological condition of Lake Sepunjung is still in the good category, social conditions are good by maintaining local wisdom and minimal conflict, while economic conditions are still relatively low due to the low income of Rantau Baru fishermen.
