The river is fed by several tributaries, including Sycan River, which contributes a significant amount of water. There are no major dams on the Sprague River, but there are several small irrigation diversions. The flow of the river is highly seasonal, with peak flows occurring in late spring and early summer due to snowmelt. In the late summer and fall, flows decrease, and the river can dry up in certain areas. Interestingly, the Sprague River is home to a diverse array of fish species, including redband trout, bull trout, and chub.
