Map of USGS gauge 0422018610 and the river around it
Where OAK ORCHARD CREEK AT THE BRIDGES NY sits, with 2 other gauges on the same river and our water's map point.
Under New York DEC's 70°F line. Water 57.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 57.2°F. That is not over the 70°F above which New York DEC says “trout and salmon can experience physical stress”. “Fish early in the day. Stream temperatures are at their coolest in the early morning hours.”
USGS publishes no daily statistics for this gauge, so the reading is not compared with the record.
Steady over 24 hours (+4.4% 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.
Species the agency lists for Oak Orchard Creek: Brown Trout, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon, Rainbow Trout, Steelhead.
Source: Steelhead Fishing in Lake Ontario Tributaries: steelhead waters with public access (New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC), Bureau of Fisheries).
Cold water. Water 57.2°F. NWS: “Cold shock can be just as severe and dangerous from water temperatures of 50-60°F (10-15°C) as it is from water at 35°F (2°C).” “Always wear a life jacket in and around the water.”
Cold Water Hazards and Safety (National Weather Service)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 9.5 mg/L at Nov 5, 9:30 PM EST; 7-day range 8.9–10.1 mg/L
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 9.5 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)Turbidity 2 FNU at Nov 5, 9:30 PM EST; 7-day range 1.8–103 FNU
Water clarity: Turbidity measures the relative clarity of water: higher means murkier. No agency publishes a fishing threshold for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Turbidity and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)Specific conductance 674 µS/cm at Nov 5, 9:30 PM EST; 7-day range 665–684 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.
NWS observed 15.9 ft stage at Nov 5, 9:30 PM EST (NWS gauge BRIN6; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Forecasts are issued routinely year-round.

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.
