Gauge

Gauge Description:

The cited gauge is well upstream. While there is a gauge not far downstream in Joliet, it includes the flow of the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal which is adjacent to, separate from, and comes in downstream of Fishnet Rapids.

By some reports, Fishnet is 'almost always' runnable, though certainly the degree of play will vary with flow.
