The river is fed by several tributaries, including the White River, and is the source of drinking water for many nearby towns. The regulated dam at Patoka Lake affects the river's flow, causing seasonal fluctuations. In the summer, the river flow decreases due to agricultural irrigation, while in the winter, rain and snowmelt increase the flow. Interestingly, the Patoka River was once used for logging, and a submerged forest can be seen at low water levels. The river also supports important fish species like the smallmouth bass and northern pike.
