The river is fed by various tributaries, including the East Branch and the West Branch. The main constituents of flow in the river are snowmelt and rainfall. During the spring, the river experiences high flows as a result of snowmelt, while during the summer, flows are generally lower. The presence of the Foote Dam near the gauge site can impact the river's flow, especially during heavy rain events. The Au Sable River is also a popular destination for fishing, with the river's clean waters supporting a variety of fish species, including trout.
