A fish screen will let them know.

Watercolor picture of a blue stream surrounded by rolling green hills. There is a brown mother duck and three baby ducks standing on one bank. There is a gray concrete fish screen in the middle of the stream with fish swimming past it. The fish screen is in the shape of a three-dimensional triangle, and covers the intake of an agricultural canal. The back and sides of the triangle are solid, while the front has a mesh screen to allow water in, but not fish.
There is a wide red arrow pointing downstream past the fish screen with text reading, Path fish take to avoid the fish screens. There is a red conversation bubble with an arrow pointing to the fish screen with text reading, Water flows naturally or is pumped through fish screens.

Fish are swept safely past the screen, following the natural current.
