BLACK WARRIOR RIVER AT NORTHPORT AL

USGS 02465000 · Alabama · reports discharge (live), gauge height

Limited data: Normal flow for the date: no water temperature here

Flow 265 ft³/s: below normal for Nov 5, over 105 years of USGS record. U.S. Geological Survey
No water-temperature reading at this gauge: take a stream thermometer.
Falling: discharge down 94.2% in 24 hours (4,530 to 265 ft³/s). Our rule of thumb: more than 10% (or 0.2 ft) in 24 hours, not a USGS class.

What the agencies suggest

Carry a stream thermometer. Carry a pocket thermometer to monitor water temperature National Park Service

General guidance from the readings and the published lines named above, not a fishing forecast. Local rules and closures come first.

Conditions for fishing general guidance

No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. 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: 68°F.
