Map of USGS gauge 05498700 and the river around it
Where South Fabius River above Newark, MO sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer. Missouri Department of Conservation publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Missouri rule, with Missouri Department of Conservation's own figure added: 68°F and 70°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Missouri Department of Conservation: Missouri trout fishing · Missouri fishing regulations.
Normal for Nov 5: 2.9–21 ft³/s (middle half of 18 years of record). Now: 142 ft³/s, above normal.
Above normal for this date. 142 ft³/s is between the 75th and 90th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 18 years of record (2009–2026): 10th 1, 25th 2.9, median 9.1, 75th 21, 90th 224 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0.57 ft³/s, highest 1,220 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 72.3%, from 513 to 142 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.
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)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, 10:39 PM CST; 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.
