That is because nobody knows. Antidotal info says that they do survive to some degree or the nearby tributary spawning streams are the greatest producers known. The only way to know for sure is to put some sort of smolt trap at the barrier dam down stream but how practical or what it would cost to build and operate I have no idea. I do know it would be expensive.
