Map of USGS gauge 0136219503 and the river around it
Where ESOPUS CREEK BELOW LOST CLOVE RD AT BIG INDIAN NY sits, with 4 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines New York DEC uses are 70°F.
Normal for Nov 5: 22–84 ft³/s (middle half of 10 years of record). Now: 32.4 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 32.4 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 10 years of record (2017–2026): 10th 3.6, 25th 22, median 57, 75th 84, 90th 164 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 3.56 ft³/s, highest 170 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).
Rising over 24 hours: discharge up 30.6%, from 24.8 to 32.4 ft³/s. 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.
Species the agency lists for Esopus Creek: brook trout, brown trout, rainbow trout.
From our page for Esopus Creek, on the same river as this gauge; the agency list is for the water, not this exact reach. Source: Upper Esopus Creek Trout Fishing - NYSDEC (New York State Department of Environmental Conservation).
Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (discharge up 30.6%). Keep your way back to the bank in sight and watch the level while you fish. “Rising” is our rule of thumb: more than 10% in discharge or 0.2 ft of gauge height in 24 hours, not a USGS or NWS class.
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.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)Turbidity 1.4 FNU at Nov 5, 10:30 PM EST; 7-day range 1–3.2 FNU
Water clarity: Turbidity measures the relative clarity of water: higher means murkier. No agency publishes a fishing threshold for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Turbidity and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)Guidance from the readings above and the published thresholds named with each line; not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access. Local rules and closures come first.
The National Weather Service has no flood-stage gauge here, so no official flood category is shown.
Checked Nov 5, 11:02 PM EST; readings refresh at most every 15 minutes and statistics daily. Provisional USGS data can be revised. Conditions change: re-check before you go. This is general guidance, not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access.
