Map of USGS gauge 0217206962 and the river around it
Where WANDO RIVER AT CAINHOY BELOW WANDO, SC sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river and our water's map point.
The agency list on file names no trout, salmon or steelhead here; these are the lines for coldwater fish if you are after them.
Over 70°F: stressful for trout. Water 70.7°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 70.7°F. South Carolina DNR: “water temperatures above 70° F stress the trout and make them difficult to catch. Fishing is best very early in the morning or very late in the evening.”
Rising over 24 hours: gauge height up 1.34 ft. 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 Wando River: Red Drum, Spotted Seatrout.

Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (gauge height up 1.34 ft). 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)Dissolved oxygen 6.2 mg/L at Nov 5, 9:00 PM EST; 7-day range 5.5–7.7 mg/L
Below EPA's coldwater mean: 6.2 mg/L is under the 6.5 mg/L 30-day mean EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages), though above its 4 mg/L minimum. One reading is not a 30-day mean. Wyoming Game and Fish: “Higher water temperatures lead to lower oxygen levels.”
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) Anglers encouraged to adjust fishing practices as temperatures rise (Wyoming Game and Fish Department)Specific conductance 42,700 µS/cm at Nov 5, 9:00 PM EST; 7-day range 42,000–42,900 µS/cm
Dissolved ions: Specific conductance rises with the ions dissolved in the water. No fishing threshold is published for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Conductivity (Electrical Conductance) 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.
NWS observed 4.16 ft stage at Nov 5, 9:00 PM EST (NWS gauge WRCS1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.

Checked Nov 5, 9:47 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.
