Good discussion M8s!
Absolutely agree the shores would depend on geography. Talking about Europe:
In Romania still at least the smaller rivers are rather "virgin" that is with not much human intervention so not so far from what they were. Along the shores there's always a high concentration of trees bush and weeds sometimes so dense that it's very hard just to get at the river shore. The width of it can vary from 5 meters to 100-200 meters. I think you can still find such on small rivers in France, Germany etc, check google earth..
Some bushy textures might not be bad using to simulate that...

That's how it is in Britain and most of Europe. Different techniques needed for different geography, I suppose.
