The river's flow is influenced by several tributaries, including the South Yadkin River and the Catawba River. There are two significant dams on the river: the Tuckertown Dam and the Narrows Dam. The flow of the river is generally higher in the spring due to increased rainfall and snowmelt, and lower in the summer and fall. A quirky fact about the hydrology is that the Yadkin River is home to several species of freshwater mussels, including the endangered Appalachian elktoe mussel.
