Allegheny River Temp

Anyone happen to have a roughly accurate or even pretty accurate temp for either Pool 5,6 or 7 of the Allegheny.  The only one I can get a temp for is the L/D in Acemetonia and it reads 50/52* roughly.  I have checked the USGS and haven't had any lucky finding any temp reading for that area. I generally base 5/6 off Crooked Creek but not sure if that's a fair bar to set the river at seeing as CC is a smaller shallower body of water (It's roughly 53/54*.)

    I was up there Sunday and we managed 1 little sauger probably about 10"...  Was higher than normal.  Hoping this rain and warm nights helps for this weekend.

    That area can be very productive for sauger and eyes, but you're right it was very high around 14.5 ft on the gauges, usgs is showing it's back down to about 12ft which should help the clarity, flow and fishing. good luck

    Thanks.  Hoping that this warm up actually sticks around and triggers the eyes and sauger.  I know people have been catching them about 2 weeks ago before the opener my girlfriend and I managed to get a couple dink walleye but they were still pretty light in color and a bit on the skinny side.
