Abstract. A semi-quantitative technique of assessing trout, Salmo trutta L., and juvenile Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., stocks in small rivers is described and evaluated against a commonly used quantitative method. The results indicate that for 0+ and 〉0+ juvenile salmon and trout a log10 n+1 transformed linear regression accounted for between 68.6% and 90.2% of the total variance in the relationship between the semi-quantitative and the quantitative result. The use of a categorization system is recommended and the applicability of the technique to an extensive juvenile salmonid monitoring programme is described.
