The Kavango River (sometimes referred to as the Okavango River) originates from the Angolan highlands south of Nova Lisboa (now referred to as Huambo in the Huambo Province) and flows eastwards to form a border between Angola and Namibia, traverses the Caprivi Strip and eventually spills out into the Okavango Delta in Botswana (MFMR, 1995).Namibia is generally a very arid to semi-arid country with limited freshwater resources. However, the Northeast part of Namibia is characterised by a presence of perennial rivers systems such as the Kavango River and other Rivers such as the Zambezi, Kwando and Chobe. The Kavango River as a system is more than just a source of fresh water for human consumption in that it is also an important habitat for abundant freshwater fish resources. The Okavango floodplain system in Namibia consists of the main river, standing backwaters, swamps and floodplains covered by water seasonally. This time of the year is considered to be the time when the floods are at their peak. High water levels are known o cause low catches by fisherfolks. This also causes water quality parameters to be slightly lower than during the dry season. Hence, low CPUE and low readings on water quality parameters due to the dilution factor.
