Abstract

The diel timing of displacement of emerging brown trout (Salmo trutta) was studied by trapping the alevins at the downstream end of three experimental channels. The presence of phosphorescent landmarks on the substrate delayed the catches during the first hours of complete darkness, but increased them during twilight. During daylight, the presence of the landmarks was associated with greatly increased numbers of free‐swimming fishes.
