Hard to say. The Obey varies so much depending on whether it's at really low water with a little flow, or high and still with the Cumberland backing up into it.
The Elk is probably more similar to the Caney in the sense that it's a series of runs and pools instead of the long slow flats of the Obey. On the other hand it's a smaller river than the Caney. In some spots it's more like a big spring creek than a river.
I'm kind of like you - I should fish it more, but it's a little far and there's really no good way to get there from here. Usually the Caney, Obey, Cumberland, or spring creeks win out instead.
