Map of USGS gauge 03333700 and the river around it
Where WILDCAT CREEK AT KOKOMO, IN sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
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: 24–84 ft³/s (middle half of 71 years of record). Now: 26.7 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 26.7 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 71 years of record (1956–2026): 10th 19, 25th 24, median 36, 75th 84, 90th 295 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 12 ft³/s, highest 1,270 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 17.8%, from 32.5 to 26.7 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.
Species the agency lists for Wildcat Creek: Rainbow Trout.
Source: 2026 Inland Trout Stocking Plan: stream stockings (Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Fish & Wildlife).
