Abstract
Movements of native brown trout, Salmo trutta, 1 + and older, were limited with up to 93% of recaptured marked fish occupying sites where previously caught. Movements > 50 m were rare with the majority < 15 m. Between sampling occasions, the population could be separated into a static component and a smaller mobile component but there was no evidence of a permanently mobile group. The proportion of mobile native fish increased after stocking with hatchery‐reared trout. Displaced native trout (1 + and older) showed the ability to home from 75 m upstream to 111 m downstream of a release site.
