A segmented fish pump system is provided. The segmented fish pump system includes a series of booster pump segments stacked upon an intake pump segment, forming an enclosed stream throughout, wherein each booster pump segment induces further upward flow, thereby minimizing the pressure and velocity needed for the intake pump of the intake pump segment. As a result, lessening trauma to fragile aquatic life at collection and further providing a nautical environment within the enclosed stream for the aquatic life to be transported as well as self-propelled to higher elevations.
