stocked trout behavior

[rcturner99]

This will be my first opening day, so I have a few basic questions. When trout are first stocked, do they tend to exhibit any particular behavior? Do they scatter looking for deep holes until they acclimate? Do they stay close to the stocking point, or tend to spread out? Is there a tendancy to move upstream as opposed to downstream, or vice versa? How close to the original stocking point do they stay? A few hundred yards up/downstream? Or does every river vary any you just have to seek them out.

Thanks for any info.
