The annual and seasonal growth, length/weight relationship, changes in seasonal condition and specific growth rates of 17 types of trout in the newly flooded reservoir, Llyn Alaw, in Anglesey, North Wales, were investigated. Scales and length‐weight data from 2076 trout caught by angling and netting during the first 4 years after impoundment were analysed to show the age, origins and growth of all fish both before and after flooding.
