Abstract
A fish guiding assembly for use adjacent to dams and the like to channel fish into a safe passage includes an elongated buoyant frame including upper and lower elongated horizontally extending frame members, and a multiplicity of vertically extending louver slats of synthetic resin horizontally spaced apart and angularly oriented relative to the longitudinal axis of said frame. Upper and lower slat mounting members extend horizontally along the length of the frame and are supported thereby, and engage the slats adjacent their upper and lower ends to retain them in angular orientation. The upper ends of the louver slats are engaged to maintain them in the mounting members.
