On 15–16 April 2026, field research was carried out on the Große Mühl River. The aim was to install a camera system for monitoring grayling (Thymallus thymallus) spawning grounds, including the potential assessment of the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus), complemented by the installation of crayfish traps upstream and downstream of the spawning site to verify their presence.
The activities also included a field excursion at the pilot site for students of the Secondary Fish Farming School in Vodňany and High school in Vodňany, during which students were introduced by faculty experts to fieldwork practices, monitoring methods, current research topics, and the scope of the project.
The activity was carried out within the project ATCZ00180 Living Treasures / Živé poklady bystřin a tůní (INTERREG Austria–Czech Republic 2021–2027).
