While most studies on phytoplankton bloom influence on bacteria dynamics focus on diatom-dominated blooms due to their global ecological significance, it is unclear if similar patterns extend to other species that compete with diatoms like <i>Phaeocystis</i> spp. This study aimed to contribute to the understanding of associations between phytoplankton and bacteria in a temperate ecosystem. For this, we studied the dynamics of phytoplankton and bacteria, combining 16S metabarcoding, microscopy, and flow cytometry over 4 years (282 samples). Phytoplankton and bacterial communities were studied throughout the year, particularly during contrasting phytoplankton blooms dominated by the Haptophyte <i>Phaeocystis globosa</i> or diatoms. We applied extended local similarity analysis (eLSA) to construct networks during blooming and non-blooming periods. Overall, the importance of seasonal and species-specific interactions between phytoplankton and bacteria is highlighted. In winter, mixed diatom communities were interconnected with bacteria, indicating a synergistic degradation of diverse phytoplankton-derived substrates. In spring, despite the intensity variations of <i>P. globosa</i> blooms, the composition of bacterial communities remained consistent over several years, suggesting establishing a stable-state environment for bacterial communities.
