The river is fed by numerous small creeks and tributaries, with the Straight River flowing into the Crow Wing River. There are no major dams on the river, but there are several small dams that regulate water levels for agriculture and recreation. The flow of the Straight River varies significantly with seasonal trends; it is highest in the spring due to snowmelt and lower during the summer and fall. Interestingly, the Straight River is known for its abundant supply of freshwater mussels, which are a key component of the river ecosystem.
