Map of USGS gauge 01054200 and the river around it
Where Wild River at Gilead, Maine sits.
Cool enough for trout and salmon. Water 51.8°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 53.6°F. Maine IF&W: trout and landlocked salmon “thrive in cool (≤ 68°F), clean, well-oxygenated water.” On warm days, “Fish early in the morning when surface water temperatures are cooler.”
Fishing Responsibly for Trout During Warm/Low Water Conditions (Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife)Normal for Nov 5: 60–215 ft³/s (middle half of 62 years of record). Now: 27.1 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 27.1 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 62 years of record (1965–2026): 10th 32, 25th 60, median 116, 75th 215, 90th 453 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 15 ft³/s, highest 2,080 ft³/s.
Classes as USGS labels them (hyswap: flow categories (WDFN_stats schema) (U.S. Geological Survey) ); percentiles from the USGS daily statistics (U.S. Geological Survey) (approved daily means; the reading is provisional and instantaneous).
Steady over 24 hours (+4.6% discharge). Rising or falling means a change of more than 10% in discharge (or 0.2 ft of gauge height) over 24 hours; our rule of thumb, not a USGS class.

Cold water. Water 51.8°F. NWS: “Cold shock can be just as severe and dangerous from water temperatures of 50-60°F (10-15°C) as it is from water at 35°F (2°C).” “Always wear a life jacket in and around the water.”
Cold Water Hazards and Safety (National Weather Service)Turn Around Don't Drown. “A mere 6 inches of fast-moving flood water can knock over an adult.” No flow number makes a crossing safe; if in doubt, stay out.
