A member of The Hoosier Canoe Club said that the current was swift at 190 CFS and he had to portage around 8 logs on a trip from Putnam Hendricks Co. Line to US 36.

We ran the river from Putnam Hendricks Co. Line to US 36 at around 800 cfs. The flow was very swift and there were no portages, strainers, or places our boats hit bottom. Hazards can appear at anytime so always scout hazards.

On 5-21-01 there was a report of the river running swiftly at 450 cfs. They reported many obstacles to manuver around. They had to portage around four log jams in the fourteen or so miles that they traveled.

It was reported that on 5-27-01, with the river at about 163 cfs, the current was pleasant. Between the green iron bridge and US 36, there was one shallow place canoes dragged, and one log jam about 1 mile downstream of the green iron bridge.
