Map of USGS gauge 14092500 and the river around it
Where DESCHUTES RIVER NEAR MADRAS, OR sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river and our water's map point.
Under ODFW's 68°F line. Water 54°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 54.1°F. That is under the 68°F at which ODFW says trout, steelhead and salmon “start to feel stressed”. “Fish early in the morning when water temperatures are cooler and fish are more active.”
5 tips for fishing in hot waterNormal for Nov 5: 4,150–4,710 ft³/s (middle half of 102 years of record). Now: 3,850 ft³/s, below normal.
Below normal for this date. 3,850 ft³/s is between the 10th and 25th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 102 years of record (1925–2026): 10th 3,750, 25th 4,150, median 4,430, 75th 4,710, 90th 5,220 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 3,160 ft³/s, highest 7,240 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).
Steady over 24 hours (−2% 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 Deschutes River: Rainbow trout, brown trout, whitefish.

Cold water. Water 54°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.
