Electrophoretic analysis of enzymes in 383 juvenile Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., within the Tamar catchment (south‐west England) revealed significant genetic differences at the IDHP‐3* locus between the three tributaries studied. Aspects of temporal and spatial variation, and management policy within catchments, are discussed.
