ABSTRACT:
A waterway, interconnecting two bodies of water, has a centrally mounted first electrode and a pair of grounded second electrodes bracketing the first electrode. A source of alternating current electric power is connected across the first electrode and the pair of grounded second electrodes to develop an electric field within the waterway, which electric field causes narcosis or tetany in any fish attempting to swim through the electric field.
