The Use of Two New Portable 12‐mm PIT Tag Detectors to Track Small Fish in Shallow Streams
Abstract This paper describes two prototypes of portable detectors based on radio frequency identification modules and antennas commercially available in Europe and North America for reading small (2.1‐mm × 11.5‐mm) passive integrated transponder tags. Maximum tag detection distances ranged from 17...

By probing the water with the antenna, we were able to detect, on average, 69% of age‐1 trout (fork length, 148 ± 26 mm (mean ± SD)), 82% of age‐0 trout (fork length, 72 ± 8 mm), and 82% of adult sculpin (total length, 74 ± 9 mm). We did not conduct a formal study to compare the performances of the two prototypes or to determine how habitat characteristics may alter their efficiency.
