Some results of flounder tagging in the Eastern Baltic

In 1966 and 1967 tagging of flounder Platichthys flesus trachurus (Duncker) was carried out in two localities in the Eastern Baltic - north of Ventspils and south of Ventspils (Latvia). The data on the recaptures are presented. The majority of recaptures were received in the area near the tagging place during a year after their marking. The fish tagged west of the Sorve Peninsula, was recaptured mainly at Saaremaa coasts. The flounder tagged south of Ventspils during the feeding seasons 1966-1967, performed migrations towards the Irbe Strait and returned to their marking place for the late autumn. During the investigation period a comparatively small mixing between the flounders of these two tagging areas was found. The migration of flounder over the Gotland Deep was stated.
