Map of USGS gauge 021622845 and the river around it
Where SOUTH SALUDA RIVER NEAR ROCKY BOTTOM, SC sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river.
Not over South Carolina DNR's 70°F line. Water 61.3°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 63.1°F. South Carolina DNR gives 52 to 62°F as optimum (“when water temperatures are optimum (52-62° F), trout fishing can be productive throughout the day”) and 70°F as the line above which water stresses trout.
Not ranked: USGS has fewer than 10 years of daily flows for this date here.
Falling over 24 hours: discharge down 57.5%, from 97.3 to 41.4 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 list not on file for this gauge. Check the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources: South Carolina trout stocking summary · South Carolina hunting and fishing regulations.
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, 10:57 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.
