The European Working Group on Eel is now 30 years old. The European Inland Fisheries Advisory Commission (EIFAC), a regional commission of the FAO, at the request of Ireland introduced the item "Biology and Management of the Eel" at the fifth session held in Rome (Italy) in May 1968. One of the recommendations was that "member countries directly interested in this topic give consideration to the holding of a meeting of appropriate experts to pursue the eel study". The very first EIFAC meeting on eel was in 1970 in Hamburg (Germany) about "eel fishing gear". Another in Montpellier (France) in 1975 was about "age determination of eels". The European Working Group was born.
