4.12.2007	Actual catch/stocking statistics about the river Oertze
2.12.2007	Big surprise at the river Oertze in lower-saxony ! During a control-fishing by members of the Aller-Oker-Salmon Community there were found about 10 big Salmonids of which 3 could be caught - this fishes are seatrouts. Since 1938 there was no trace of migrating salmonids - therefore the astonishment was very big. However the year 2007 is a special one because of very high water throughout the whole year in lower-saxon< so that the weirs in the river Weser Hemelingen and Langwedel were easier to pass than in other years. Further on the weir at Hademstorf in the river Aller was opened because of high waters. The new weir at Marklendorf (also river Aller) gave the chance to pass the weir diractly because of high disscharge of the obstacle. The last obstacles for the fishes before entering the river Örtze in Bannetze is a building-site at present and is this year also passable for migrating fishes. The following problem now needs a quick and pragmatic : when will the weir at Wolthausen (river Oertze) be passable ? Die All fishes were found below the mill - upwards no migrating salmonids ! The electric fishcatchdevice EFGI 4000 of the company Bretschneider in combination with a dip net (80 cm diameter) and an expanse anode proofed to be good a substition.

23.07.2007	The 7. international conference on fishtelemetry took place in Silkeborg . Highlights : 1. In the observed european rivers (rhine, gudenaa) the limit of 40 % of silver eels that have to reach the sea, due to new european guideline, is not achieved in any of those rivers. 2. Within the usage of telemetric devices more often a mix of technologies is used. Coupling of for example acoustic and radiotransmitters can lead to more detailed information about the different fishspecies. 3. The usage of technical equipment should be a more international coordinated to achieve a network of telemetric detections - in some cases there exists a worldwide detection-network.
