Map of USGS gauge 02011800 and the river around it
Where JACKSON RIVER BL GATHRIGHT DAM NR HOT SPGS, VA sits, with 4 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Normal for Nov 5: 153–171 ft³/s (middle half of 47 years of record). Now: 164 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 164 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 47 years of record (1980–2026): 10th 133, 25th 153, median 161, 75th 171, 90th 340 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 67 ft³/s, highest 1,380 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 (+0% 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.
Within Virginia DWR's comfort range. Water 58.6°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 59°F. Virginia DWR: trout “are most comfortable in highly oxygenated water that doesn’t exceed 68 degrees in temperature.” It also warns that “Trout become stressed in water temperatures in the mid- to upper-60s”: on warm days, “consider fishing early in the morning for a few hours and then quitting.”
Safe Practices for Summer Trout Fishing (7 June 2022) (Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources)Species the agency lists for Jackson River: rainbow trout, brown trout, smallmouth bass, rock bass, redbreast sunfish.

Cold water. Water 58.6°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.
Turn Around Don't Drown (National Weather Service)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, 9:05 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.
