What the agencies suggest
During periods of high water, fish move towards the banks to find calmer water and lower velocitiesPennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission
Wading and boating should be avoided if waters are running high and muddy and the streambed is not visiblePennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission
If stream conditions are not favorable, consider fishing at a lakePennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission

Where CHERRY CREEK NEAR GLOBE, AZ sits.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Arizona Game and Fish uses are 67°F.

Normal for Nov 5: 4.4–8.7 ft³/s (middle half of 61 years of record). Now: 128 ft³/s, much above normal.
Much above normal for this date. 128 ft³/s is above the 90th percentile of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 61 years of record (1966–2026): 10th 3.5, 25th 4.4, median 5.7, 75th 8.7, 90th 11 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 3.21 ft³/s, highest 156 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 29.3%, from 181 to 128 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)Flow far above normal. Above the 90th percentile of daily mean flow for this date (USGS class “much above normal”), from 61 years of record. Expect higher, faster water than usual for the season.
