This could be a huge step forward in technology to help salmon migration.Would like to see bio testing on things like mortality and slime removal.Millions could be saved here.Small runs returned to areas not fiscally feasible in the past.

Wow that is interesting.  Would be a heck of a lot cheaper than fish ladders.  Thinking about the dams on Cap, Seymour and  Coquitlam which deny fish passage this almost seems like a perfect solution.

Simply genius! Yes, so many practical uses. Salmon spawning in Clearwater Lake tributaries? Hehe  It would also reduce stress, resulting in less mortalities and more fish spawning vs fish ladders. Incredible.
