@RedandGreen00 @HellstromKGV @linneuni Cast netting is a very widespread fishing method so hardly anything the possible poachers already did not know.

Tagged the last silver eels this year with colleagues from Wildlife Estonia. Since the fall of 2019, we have tagged 100 silver eels using acoustic tags to study the freshwater migration routes in Estonia. @maaylikool #telemetry #eel

@acbryhn My colleagues have also an ongoing project on finding use for very abundant smaller sized bream which is discarded by fishermen at the moment. The possible solutions they are looking into besides eating is fish feed and fertilizers.

Something different from catching eel this time. This little fella wandered into our fyke last time out. #cottusgobio #fishing @maaylikool

@JackSpees @theriverstrust @RibbleTrust @Mike_Forty @ProfJGrey @IFMFish @RiversTrustBB @GlavenEel @greenleejw Might have escaped from a fyke and then had some kind of infection? Eels that have spent some time in fyke nets tend to have head damage.

Started with field works last week and the results are very promising. All these eels are migrating silvers from Narva River Basin District - what a variety in length and appearance. Of course the small ones are males๐Ÿ˜Š #estruseel #estoniarussiacbc #eel @Maaylikool

We are keeping a few glass eels in the lab and their feeding time is always quite a show. This is a frozen mixture of grinded aquaculture pellets and Hermetia illucens larvae. #glasseel #eel #feeding

Had a blast yesterday telling kids about eel management and research we have done so far in our @estruseel project. We will visit at least 6 schools in total and try to spread the word to as many people as possible!
