The concentrations of heavy metals in tench, pike-perch, and common carp fish caught in four different seasons from Damsa dam lake (NevAYehir) were determined. Heavy metal contents of fishes changed depending on seasons. The highest Al (20.894 mg/kg) in tench was established in winter, and the lowest Al (1.605 mg/kg) was determined in summer. Fe content of tench fish changed between 112.906 mg/kg (autumn) and 31.207 mg/kg (spring). In addition, Zn contents of tench were found between 36.0323 mg/kg (summer) and 430.586 mg/kg (winter). The results indicate that concentrations of Cu of tench varied from 0.1934 mg/kg (winter) to 15.422 mg/kg (autumn). Results indicate that concentrations varied from 2.923 mg/kg (autumn) to 32.078 mg/kg (summer) with a mean of 11.1893 mg/kg for Al; 0.2483 mg/kg (spring) to 3.3088 mg/kg (autumn) with a mean of 1.6189 mg/kg for Ni; 0.5325 mg/kg (spring) to 0.845 mg/kg (autumn) with a mean of 0.7234 for Pb; and 7.0464 mg/kg (winter) to 253.686 mg/kg (summer) with a mean of 133.6348 for Zn. In common carp, Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn, Se, Ga, and Te contents were determined as 3.9623 mg/kg; 0.1293, 0.2336, 0.0526, 0.1543, 4.2406, 0.726, 1.797, 0.6216, 6.8536, 0.1783, 0.7876, and 0.371 mg/kg in autumn, respectively.
