Is it true that during daylight the sea trout will normally be in the streamy well oxygenated parts of the river and not in the pools? thank you.

It's the other way round.

Gary

is it right they stop runing soon

Depends on the river. Some rivers are well past their best for sea trout by now while others are still showing good runs of fish. On the whole it's widely accepted that June, July and August are the prime months for sea trout, though they can run into October on some rivers.

Not necessarily so.

To a large degree it varies immensely from river to river and region to region - oddly, sea trout behaviour can be very different in England and Wales from Scotland.

In West Wales, at any given time you may indeed find sea trout in the streamier water during daylight and they can be successfully fished for with a dry fly or indeed a goldhead nymph. I put the 'can' in italics because it's not a given! Similarly, there will be many fish who tuck themselves under banks and rock ledges in slack water and will not emerge into pools and riffles until the cover of darkness.
