He is considered a pioneer in the field of fish farming. He was the first to breed rainbow trout and black bass in Europe. In 1890 he introduced the crayfish because he assumed it was resistant to cancer plague and could replace the European crayfish , which had already been decimated by this disease . His angling manual is still in print and was published in its 19th edition in 2007.
