The thing is that the dams here in the Great NorthWet had fish ladders for many a decade, and the records show yearly salmon runs actually improved with the things. Gave the returning salmon places to rest before continuing the up-river journey.

The depleted fish runs are almost directly attributable to fishing ships just waiting for the salmon at the mouths of rivers and streams. Easier catches.

But try to explain all this to a green and you end up wanting to have been arguing with the cat instead.

Don’t forget the Bolt Ruling, Native Americans have unrestricted fishing on salmon runs. Gill nets right across salmon run rivers.
