I know the area you are talking about, i drive by it often...and it doesnt surprise me you catch fish there, it looks pretty good, especially this time of year. As far as fish getting up and over that particular dam...i dont imagine it happens too fruequently, if at all. I dont think the DOW is too worried about it though, as "fish migration" probably isnt a concern with them on that particular river. i believe that stretch is all put and take type water which is stocked on a yearly schedule, so building a fish latter for fish that dont really migrate would be...well, not really too useful for either the fish and humans. It might get some use from the fish, but for the most part i dont think it would be something that you would see on a regular basis.

however...im no fish biologist. im just guessing...
