Map of USGS gauge 09026500 and the river around it
Where ST. LOUIS CREEK NEAR FRASER, CO. sits.
Under CPW's 71°F line. Water 33.8°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 36.1°F. That is under the 71°F CPW uses for its closure criteria. “CPW recommends fishing early in the day to avoid peak afternoon temperatures.” “Anglers should use a handheld thermometer to test water conditions and move to cooler, higher-elevation waters once temperatures approach 71 degrees.”
CPW implements additional voluntary fishing closures on four Western Slope rivers (16 July 2026) (Colorado Parks and Wildlife)Normal for Nov 5: 6.4–12 ft³/s (middle half of 92 years of record). Now: 4.14 ft³/s, much below normal.
Much below normal for this date. 4.14 ft³/s is below the 10th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 92 years of record (1935–2026): 10th 4.8, 25th 6.4, median 7.9, 75th 12, 90th 16 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 2.9 ft³/s, highest 27 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).
Rising over 24 hours: discharge up 16.6%, from 3.55 to 4.14 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 list not on file for this gauge. Check the Colorado Parks and Wildlife: Colorado fish stocking report · Colorado fishing rules and regulations.
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)Rising water. Rising over the last 24 hours (discharge up 16.6%). Keep your way back to the bank in sight and watch the level while you fish. “Rising” is our rule of thumb: more than 10% in discharge or 0.2 ft of gauge height in 24 hours, not a USGS or NWS class.
Cold water. Water 33.8°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)Specific conductance 110 µS/cm at Nov 5, 6:30 PM MST; 7-day range 103–113 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.
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 1.24 ft stage, 5 ft³/s at Nov 5, 6:30 PM MST (NWS gauge SLEC2; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.
