The hydrology of the river is characterized by seasonal fluctuations, with higher flows occurring in the winter and early spring due to increased rainfall. There are several dams along the river, including the Lynchs Lake Dam and the Lake Ashwood Dam. Interestingly, the Lynches River is named after Thomas Lynch Jr., a signatory of the Declaration of Independence who owned land along the river in the 18th century.
