Love the idea & the looks of this, but apparently they only favour 'a handful of commercially important species, like salmon'; not others, Lamprey, Largemouth Bass etc. These rectangular concrete designs aren't so successful, it needs a 'nature-like fishway that mimics a normal riverine reach' - 'You still carve out the channel with bulldozers, but engineers tend not to line them with concrete. They put in natural materials, usually some boulders boulders, some riffle-pool-run sequences. It creates a more diverse suite of habitats - you’ve got water bouncing off boulders, you’ve got margins, you’ve got deep areas and shallow areas. There’s something for everyone.' - Steven J. Cooke.
@@petecapri4054 exactly the California officials care more about the Sacramento valley and water going to cities. It so terrible l hate these officials not caring for the king salmon.
@@evanmiller2570 That's not actually what s/he said, maybe it's what they meant, maybe it isn't; written word is open to interpretation when it lacks clarity-!
Never knew a fish ladder existed. Pretty cool stuff.

fantastic video, thank you
Cool ladder, love those big chinook🦈
I've always saw them in documentaries so I never got an idea of just how big they are.
I wish they would take down the dams and allow the king salmon fishery to recover. Decades ago we had 25-40 lbs salmon.
At this point the government has sealed the fate of California salmon with the dams and over stripping of the the water resources

salmon ladder not doing pull ups while climbing a rack, but salmon ladder.
*SALMOM*
Nice video
Seeing those big salmons makes me hungry
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
dams are bad for the fish
Beautiful creatures, i could steal one and keep it in a see through tank. A big one. But i wont!
They'd be dead. They're bodies are literally decomposing when they enter the rivers.
They enter the streams to breed then die. They are the equivalent of an 85 year old man at that point
@@tsherwood2112 even better!!!
How many 85yr old humans could leap over walls in rivers?! - The salmon are dying, but not equivalent to elderly humans.
Cool
they should
They should what?
@@merrickbrody8859 I have no actual clue what I was writing there, come on I wrote two months ago
I agree with Lolita
They really should!
Yes they should i think
Have a good day productions. Ideas
Looks nice, but how much Cesium-131 do these salmon have in them after Fukushima keeps dumping it into the Pacific?
Not enough for me to stop eating them
It's cool if you're too scared to eat them... more radioactive powers for me then lol
If we don't dip it in honey, we'll be fine.
Well, that was a big waste of time. Not ONE salmon was shown going upstream.
Dont be mean
@@eydiskaradottir1236 he is saying the fish are dying for nothing
