Map of USGS gauge 02304000 and the river around it
Where HILLSBOROUGH R AT FOWLER AV NEAR TEMPLE TERRACE FL sits, with 8 other gauges on the same river.
USGS publishes no daily statistics for this gauge, so the reading is not compared with the record.
Rising over 24 hours: discharge up 58.2%, from 306 to 484 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.
Federal guidance. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Florida rule:
Stressful for trout. Water 77.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 77.2°F. At 68°F the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service says rainbow trout “start stressing”, and the National Park Service at Grand Teton recommends that anglers “cease fishing at 2 p.m. when water temperatures are likely to exceed 68°F.” Its advice: “Fish early in the morning while the water temperature is cooler”, “Play and land fish quickly to reduce exhaustion stress” and “Keep the fish in the water as much as possible.”
High water temperatures prompt fishing advisory in Grand Teton National Park (29 July 2022) (National Park Service) Up a climate-stressed creek (9 June 2023) (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service)Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission: Florida freshwater fishing sites and forecasts · Florida saltwater recreational fishing regulations.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (National Weather Service)Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (discharge up 58.2%). 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 1.9 mg/L at Nov 5, 9:45 PM EST; 7-day range 1.9–3.4 mg/L
Below EPA's coldwater minimum: 1.9 mg/L is under the 4 mg/L EPA sets as the coldwater 1-day minimum, a level it says should be met at all times. Consider not fishing for trout here until it recovers.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Specific conductance 304 µS/cm at Nov 5, 9:45 PM EST; 7-day range 304–350 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
NWS observed 22.1 ft stage at Nov 5, 9:30 PM EST (NWS gauge FOWF1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are issued as needed during times of high water, but are not routinely available.

Checked Nov 5, 10:18 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.
