This paper presents the results of an experimental study on 18 designs of vertical slot fishways. Based on these results, it appears that a width of 8b0 and a length of 10b0 for the pools, where b0 is the slot width, are satisfactory, and minor variations can be made to these dimensions without affecting their satisfactory performance. In the two general groups of designs, design 6 in the first group and designs 16 and 18 in the second group are recommended for practical use.
