Map of USGS gauge 08010000 and the river around it
Where Bayou Des Cannes near Eunice, LA 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. We found no Louisiana agency water-temperature line for trout anglers. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Louisiana rule: 68°F.
Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries: Louisiana fishing regulations (official eRegulations edition).
Normal for Nov 5: 5.8–79 ft³/s (middle half of 87 years of record). Now: 3.75 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 3.75 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 87 years of record (1939–2025): 10th 1.9, 25th 5.8, median 15, 75th 79, 90th 423 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0.1 ft³/s, highest 3,830 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 39.1%, from 6.16 to 3.75 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
Flood categories: action stage, minor, moderate and major flooding (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.

Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.
NWS observed 0.41 ft stage, 6 ft³/s at Nov 5, 8:15 PM CST (NWS gauge BDCL1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are issued as needed during times of high water, but are not routinely available.
