Tembang is a pelagic fish which is important in Indonesia and the development on the Sunda Strait. The Indian Ocean Dipole could affect oceanography and at the same time will affect the population of fishes. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of IOD and oceanographic factors on the catch of Tembang fish. This research was conducted in the Sunda Strait waters by looking at the Dipole Mode Index (DMI) and oceanographic ocean conditions such as sea surface temperature and chlorophyll as well as the production of fish catches for 11 years from 2008-2018. IOD affects the catch of Tembang fish by 35.8%. Temperature influences the catch of Tembang fish in the Sunda Strait by 9.48%. Klorofil-a influences the catch of Tembang fish in Sunda Strait by 38.6%. DMI, Temperature, and Chlorophyll affect fish catches by 26.9%.
