Water Level on the Rum?

Planning to hit the Rum out of the fairgrounds in Anoka next week. Wondering how the water level is. My boat is semi deep (Larson FX1850) but can get through fairly skinny water. How far up can we get?

It is very low. Launching will be tough. Even the Mississippi at the 169 bridge is at a record low. I would have a few back up plans incase its too sketchy.

All the rivers right now are getting tough to launch. The rum is no exception

No idea about down river but upriver is very low.

I was up river near Mille Lacs lake on fishing opener in May and it was already quite low then. Have to imagine it’s worse now. Even a kayak might have trouble at this point.

Here is a link to the current river levels. They are usually quite accurate.

Here’s another reading for the Rum near Anoka. Tracks discharge, depth and is below 25th percentile.
