Eel-Care During its complex life cycle, the eel is exposed to many adverse influences such as pollution, overfishing of the young eel stocks (glass eels are a delicacy!), Climate change, diseases, parasites and predators. The eel has been on the "Red List" of endangered species since 1987, and today its stocks are considered "highly endangered" mainly because the glacial eel production on the coasts accounted for two to five percent of the amount at the beginning of the 1960s decreased n is.

Beginn und Fortlauf des Nachzuchtprogrammes für die "Eifeler Bachforelle" aus Wildstämmen The beginning Conservation on behalf of the State of Rhineland-Pfalz Return Artificial reproduction of the "Eifeler brown trout" The fishing association Prüm 1967 eV has been actively protecting species in the form of the offspring of the "Eifel brook trout" since 1991. The University of Mainz (Prof. Dr. Alfred Seitz) carried out the first genetic studies on the importance of the regional brown trout population. When creating a population genetic profile of the "Eifeler brown trout" by Prof. Dr. Arndt Schreiber and Dr. Michael Riffel from Heidelberg University, it turned out that the "Eifel brook trout" - if not different from that of the Rhine catchment area - formed the most homogeneous group of all trout in the Rhine catchment area. In the years that followed, the Prüm Fishing Association 1967 eV stripped many thousands of trout eggs from as many varieties of brown trout as possible from wild stocks and released the trout seedlings it yielded into several previously damaged Eifel streams to preserve the "Eifel brown trout" at a young age. For this purpose, a specially built hatchery is operated, which is fed with 6 ° C cold, surface-independent water. Regular surveys of the populations of the occupied streams have shown that these measures, which are very time-consuming and labor-intensive for the fishing club Prüm 1967 eV, are crowned with success, since the wild brown trout are very true to location and reproduce particularly well. In this way, a self-reproducing stock could be established in many small streams. This is mainly due to the fact that only regional animals are used for breeding - autochthonous stocking - which means that the seedlings are already optimally adapted to their "new" environment through their genetic heritage. The biggest hurdle that stood in the way of breeding success were the scattered, partly unsafe ponds that were leased by the association. At this point, a cooperation agreement was concluded with the state of Rhineland-Palatinate. This included the work in the species conservation project "Eifeler brown trout and river pearl mussel" and as a result the construction of the later pond system "In der Litzer". This contract has existed for more than 25 years and has now led the association to international activity. In addition to the alliance partners in Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia, the EU life project river pearl mussel, in particular the "Hellef fir d'Natur" in Heinerscheid, also benefit from the work of the association.

Wie züchtet man originale Eifeler Bachforellen salmo trutta fario "Eifel brown trout" Back The stripping of farmed fish Every year in the first weeks of December, project work begins for us when our spawning trout are stripped. Each of these hand-picked trout comes from wild catches of regional streams or from the breeding program itself. A main task is the regular "refreshing" of the spawning fish strain in order to incorporate a maximum of genetic diversity into the breeding program. For this purpose, the fishing club Prüm 1967 eV has a fixed spawn fish in the breeding facility "In der Litzer". Here the trout experience year-round care and care and can be stripped off with minimal stress. The seed (milk) of the male trout (Milchner) are then added to the eggs, and here too, as with spawning, several trout are streaked. Since there are usually more males than females available, the mixture is mixed in a ratio of 2 - 4, which benefits the genetic diversity due to the different mating. Water is added to the mixture for fertilization and carefully stirred with a goose feather. When they arrive at the hatchery, the eggs are rinsed out in clear water and carefully placed in the undercurrent boxes with a counting plate. From now on, these are checked daily and dead eggs are read out. Until the eye point stage is reached, the eggs cannot be transported and unnecessary movement is avoided. We expect about 420 daily degrees for our trout. This means that at a water temperature of 6 ° C, the larvae hatch after about 70 days The female trout (Rogner) are spread the eggs into a fine sieve with gentle pressure on the belly. The eggs are in ovarian fluid here, contact with water is largely prevented to prevent the egg membrane from closing. If you have enough eggs, put them in a smooth bowl. Left trout larvae just before hatching. You can clearly see the eyes and the torso through the eggshell, the orange color comes from the yolk sac, from which the larvae feed in the first few weeks before being fed. Larvae hatching and hatching below. Even if a continuous supply of fresh, oxygen-rich water is important throughout the breeding - from here on it is essential. Even brief disruptions can result in significant losses. In late April to early May, the time has come. The trout have outgrown the hatchery and need more space to thrive. A large part is brought to the "In der Litzer" pond for further breeding. Another part is released into the upper reaches in streams leased by the association. These are not fished, but only nurtured for spawning fish at large intervals. Trout become sexually mature at the age of 2-3. First spawners are not used for breeding purposes, at 4-5 years high quality roe / milk can be obtained and the cycle closes.

Electric fishing ...what is inside?!? E-fishing is not a method for the lazy angler to recreate the animals, but the most gentle method to get an overview of the species spectrum of a body of water. The exercise is only permitted for appropriately trained persons and also requires official approval for each fishing operation. The devices used are subject to inspection by the TÜV or a qualified electrician at specified intervals and are constantly maintained by us in order to largely exclude hazards . But electric fishing is exactly what it sounds like - electric current flows through the water - which is always potentially dangerous, especially if you wade through the water. However, if you want to manage / maintain a body of water, e-fishing is the most tried and tested means of checking the stock - fish monitoring - in order to plan further measures based on this. In addition to monitoring, e-fishing is also used to catch spawning fish, for purposes of scientific research, to resettle fish during construction work and to determine the extent of fish death. Fish that fall into the effective range of a catchable field are temporarily deprived of the ability to swim in a targeted manner and can then be removed with landing nets. If used properly, the fish will not be harmed and will be back to full agility and vitality within a very short time - usually immediately after switching off the field. In principle (without wanting to go into too much detail) there are two methods of e-fishing related to the way the devices work, that of methods with pulse or direct current. Due to the lower energy consumption, the pulse current method allows a longer distance to be fished because the battery cell is less stressed, but has a higher scaring effect. The direct current method offers the advantage of a more targeted swimming movement towards the anode (the positive pole) - thus the fish can be steered towards a by-catcher in the field, which then catches them. Disadvantages are the higher energy requirements due to the direct current field and any difficulties in "keeping" larger fish. The safe nursery In order to give our small brown trout a good starting position for their start into the wild, we also use e-fishing. In small streams on gravel banks and somewhat deeper pools with enough hiding places, we release our little brown trout to freedom. But even in these small streams, predators are lurking. So that we do not set the table for them, we have to move them now. Locations are targeted where trout can be found that can be dangerous for the little ones. These are then removed, fed to breeding or reintroduced further down the river. This gives the small trout enough time to get used to it and to find hiding places. Because the fish that are released further down rise again in the water. In this way, the loss of broodlings can be somewhat limited and new breeding-fish can be obtained at the same time. The wildlings obtained in this stream are characterized by their rich colors with bright yellow bellies and the sharply defined drawing. After the brook piece has been searched with the e-net, the little ones can move in. As mentioned at the beginning, e-fishing is also used for stock control. The pictures shown here were taken during fishing at the end of April, so minnows were found that had their spawning rash, bullheads, loaches as well as brook lamprey that had already spawned - therefore areas with fine sediment were left out - there are ailerons to be expected (larval stage of the brook lamprey) . Here are the minnows - the male in the spawning dress, to his left 2 "fat" females almost ready to spawn and in the next picture a loach.
