The river flows through northeastern Iowa and includes several tributaries, including the Little Turkey River. There are no major dams on the Turkey River at Spillville, although there are smaller structures that may impact flow. Seasonal trends show that the river typically has higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and spring rains. One interesting fact about the hydrology of the Turkey River is that it is known for its excellent trout fishing, as the river is home to a healthy population of brown and rainbow trout.
