I know, here is one study in which that is happening:
Inshore Saltwater Fishing Discussion: Redfish and Specks Benefit from Limited Weir Closings - SaltyCajun.com

it is going to be very difficult to make any type of correlation between weirs being open and fish being less fit when they are open. Sometimes scientists overthink things and forget about common sense. On what planet does it make sense that if more food is available (weirs open) would fish be less fit? None. It doesn't, unless you subscribe to the regurgitation theory i.e. bulimic trout, which is nevermind i digress
