in Wisconsin you can travel on any navigable water wheter or not it's navigable at the time you're on it..you can drag your boat/canoe up or downstream....and it only has to be navigable once every year(high water). You can also legally wade in any stream, creek or river and can walk on the bank to the high water mark. You can bypass a dam or other man made obstacle by means of the most direct route. At least this is how a warden explained it to me at my youngest son's hunter safety class a few years back.
