fish ladders can be effective but it depends on how you want it to be effective. Some fish get trapped inside and get killed but on the other hand the ladders have proven to have been effective getting the fish over the dam

fish ladders help fishso they don't get sick
Hydropower plants install _____________ ladders to help fish swim upstream to reproduce. Some hydropower plants have fish
Salmon use their sense of smell (olfactory organ) to return to the place in a stream in which they were born. The fish have an instinctual desire to complete this journey at all costs.Fish ladders provide a way for migrating fish to get around obstacles like dams.

Hydroelectric power has been touted as the 'environmentally clean, renewable source of power.' This is subject to debate, as hydroelectric dams use turbines to generate electricity, and these turbines are spun by shafts which have blades on them. Fish which get caught in the high-pressure streams of water directed at the turbine blades usually do not survive the encounter with the blades. Also, the impoundments, or lakes, behind hydroelectric dams slow the speed of the river so much that many young fish do not survive the long swim to the ocean, where food is plentiful in comparison to rivers. Of course, dams present a complete barrior to upstream migration, unless fish ladders are in place, and even fish ladders are not 100 percent effective, as many fish are unable to locate the ladders. Salmon populations upstream of Grand Coulee Dam, which does not have fish ladders, disappeared, except for the freshwater varieties.

The three types of ladders commonly found at a worksite are step ladders, extension ladders, and platform ladders. Step ladders are self-supporting and have a hinged design, extension ladders can be extended to different heights, and platform ladders have a wide standing platform at the top for stability.
A fish ladder is a structure which allows fish to move past an obstacle such as a dam. Without fish ladders, fish would be stuck downstream of the obstacle, and this could potentially have a negative impact on the breeding cycles and lifestyle of the fish. So, It protects the fish in the environment, and helps animals that eat fish.

A ladder is a vertical or inclined set of rungs or steps used for climbing up or down. Examples of ladders include step ladders, extension ladders, attic ladders, and platform ladders. They are commonly used in construction, maintenance, and firefighting.
