W/o looking it up, what's your guess to what the Red and Ouachita River rank in flow rate?

Out of US river ranked by cubic flow rate at discharge, where do you think the Red, Atchafalaya, and Ouachita rank?
Also, did you know that the Red River is the Atchafalaya River? if you look at google earth, they are the same thing. Just changes names near Simmesport and some inflow from the Mississippi joins it.

Shouldn't that be obvious when you consider 3rd in discharge rate dumps into the second in discharge rate which then dumps into the first in discharge rate?
1. Atchafalaya
2. Red
3. Ouachita

It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that the reservoir I fish several times a week, Lake Texoma from the Red River, flows down to Louisiana like that.
The Red River below the Denison Dam is barely flowing unless they're generating from the dam.
Also, the upper Red here has a high salt content which is perfect for the self-producing striper population. They haven't stocked that badboy with stripers since the 60s. Salt content is high from the salt n the western Oklahoma-Texas basin.

The US Government has a station in Vicksburg, Ms. They oversee a number of waterways, dams, etc. Might want to start there. Have you tried Google?

interesting data point.......the corps of engineers have monitored silt content in the Mississippi for the last hundred years and there was a big change in the 1950's. The monitored silt content dropped by 2/3 over that 10 year period. Sooo the lack of silt caused a big loss in coastal wetlands. What caused the siltation loss??? The corp did a big nation wide campaign to reduce muddy water runoff .
