About the goose river


The Goose River is a 75-mile-long tributary that flows into the Red River in North Dakota. The river has a long history, with Native American tribes using it for transportation and fishing. Today, the Goose River is an important source of water for agriculture and communities along its banks. The river is fed by a number of smaller streams and has several reservoirs and dams, including the Baldhill Dam and the Goose River Reservoir. These structures help regulate the river's flow and provide recreational opportunities such as fishing, boating, and camping. The Goose River is also home to a variety of fish species, including walleye, northern pike, and channel catfish. The river is an important resource for the region and is managed by local and state agencies to ensure its sustainability.
