Abstract. During April 1989, approximately 45000 swim-up Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., fry were planted in the upper tributaries of the Lui Water, a tributary of the River Dee, north-east Scotland, at densities of between 2-6 and 3-3/m2. Adult salmon are normally excluded from this stream by a waterfall. In mid-August 1989. a 5-km length of stream was surveyed for juvenile salmon and it was estimated that about 230000+ salmon were present. It was estimated that 518% of the original planted fry survived from April to August 1989. A further survey in August 1990 showed that about 3400 1 + salmon remained. Of the 0 + salmon 14·5% survived from August 1989 to August 1990.
