Map of USGS gauge 03329700 and the river around it
Where DEER CREEK NEAR DELPHI, IN sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. Indiana DNR publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Indiana rule: 68°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 37–114 ft³/s (middle half of 82 years of record). Now: 52.9 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 52.9 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 82 years of record (1945–2026): 10th 26, 25th 37, median 49, 75th 114, 90th 326 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 19 ft³/s, highest 1,050 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).
Steady over 24 hours (−9% discharge). 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.
