I have never fished the Clarion below where Clear Creek State Park is so I have NO IDEA what it is like from there down ... and I rarely wade the river ...
as I have said before I ride along River Road and stop where ever I see access to the river... or route 949 towards Ridgeway and do the same thing.
plus I have never looked at any gauges.. I just judge how much rain (storms) and how bad, we get .. how hot it is ... and how bad the storms were and if they caused the water to get muddy..
If the water is not muddy, and not real hot for several days in a row and I have the time I'm fishing the river. I do not pay much attention to anything else :)
sorry I can not be of more help in that area....
right now and earlier we got bad storms so at least up this way the water will be muddy until Friday ... IF ... we do not get more storms and they are calling for more tomorrow, which could mess up the fishing for the week-end...........
I worry about the muddy conditions because that is my #1 worst fishing time... I just can't catch fish if there's muddy water .. LOL
