Gauge Help

THESE PICTURES ARE FROM  2010
This is not happening right now.

So what do all of the numbers mean?

This is September 3rd 2010

Gauge Height:3.28

Cubic Feet per second:5.8

Turbidity: .1




And this is September 29 2010  at 1:15PM

The gauge height was: 4.30 feet

The Cubic Feet per Second: 154

Water Turbidity: 27

This is what that looks like:

At the Stop Sign Hole












At the Water Gauge.



At Manchester Hole


There are no magic numbers. Just at some point you have to decide to fish or not. I have seen guys do well in chocolate milk water with a higher cfs than I would be comfortable with.  And I have done well in water conditions like the first picture.

Thanks for throwing this up again beagler!  I've referenced it several times when trying to help others.  I know what I like, but it's helpful to show others that aren't real familiar with the gauges.

Curiosity killed the cat, but for awhile I was a suspect.

Just another example of greedy locals keeping the fish for their own

Don't you know that people coming in from out of the county bring in $2B a month?

Seriously, until the leaves are off the trees do not expect rain to do a lot to sustain creek levels.

Thanks SJ. Over the years this has been one of the questions I hear asked a lot. There are a lot of guys who are much better steelheaders than I, so I try to let them answer other harder questions. Since I live pretty close to Walnut this kind of my contribution and I try to keep it near the top at this time of year.
  And now there is a tree in the creek.
