Map of USGS gauge 02397530 and the river around it
Where COOSA RIVER AT STATE LINE, AL/GA sits, with 4 other gauges 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.
Normal for Nov 5: 1,600–4,620 ft³/s (middle half of 14 years of record). Now: 1,800 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 1,800 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 14 years of record (2013–2026): 10th 1,150, 25th 1,600, median 2,720, 75th 4,620, 90th 8,120 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 1,110 ft³/s, highest 8,390 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).
Falling over 24 hours: discharge down 59.8%, from 4,480 to 1,800 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. Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Alabama rule:
Stressful for trout. Water 66.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 68.2°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 the agency lists for Coosa River: Bluegill, Crappie, Hybrid Striped Bass, Largemouth Bass, Redear Sunfish, Spotted Bass, Striped Bass, White Bass.
Source: Rivers and Mobile Delta: WFF river fishing pages that feature black bass (Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Division).
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 7.9 mg/L at Nov 5, 8:00 PM EST; 7-day range 7.5–9.8 mg/L
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 7.9 mg/L meets the 6.5 mg/L EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages; eggs and fry need a 8 mg/L minimum).
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)pH 7.3 at Nov 5, 8:00 PM EST; 7-day range 7.2–7.7
Within EPA's freshwater range: pH 7.3 is within the 6.5–9 range EPA gives for freshwater aquatic life.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Specific conductance 234 µS/cm at Nov 5, 8:00 PM EST; 7-day range 188–266 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.
The National Weather Service has no flood-stage gauge here, so no official flood category is shown.
Checked Nov 5, 9:09 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.
