In order to clarify the distribution and migration of young Japanese flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus, 4,800 hatchery-reared fish were released with a tag in western Wakasa Bay, the Japan Sea, in October 1992. A large number of fish was recovered in the shallow waters less than 10 km from the release site till next August. After next September, the number of fish recovered near the release site decreased, and some of fish recovered in the western area located more than 100 km from the site. These results suggest that young Japanese flounder, that settled in shallow waters of western Wakasa Bay, stay near the nursery ground till next summer, and migrate toward the off-shore area and / or far west area in next autumn and winter.
