Yet according to local officials, the Rock River isn't low right now. It's actually at "normal" levels for summer, sort of.

"It's a typical low water now," said Boyd Richter, regional fish and game warden for the state Department of Natural Resources. "With flooding the last few years, people just aren't used to low levels."
