Reading Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST · provisional USGS data
No flow here now. USGS stopped publishing discharge at this gauge on Oct 1, 2006; it still reports what is shown. We found no other gauge on the same river that publishes flow.
Water temperature, last 7 days: 169 readings from Oct 29, 8:30 PM PDT to Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST; ranging 56.1 to 58.6 °F; latest 56.1 °F.

Map of USGS gauge 14202980 and the river around it
Where SCOGGINS CK BLW HENRY HAGG LAKE, NR GASTON, OR sits, with 1 other gauge on the same river.
Under ODFW's 68°F line. Water 56.1°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 56.3°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 water (Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife)Species list not on file for this gauge. Check the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife: Oregon weekly trout stocking schedule · Oregon fishing regulations.
Cold water. Water 56.1°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)Dissolved oxygen 11.2 mg/L at Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST; 7-day range 10.7–11.4 mg/L
Enough oxygen for coldwater fish: 11.2 mg/L meets the 6.5 mg/L EPA sets for coldwater fish (other life stages; eggs and fry need a 8 mg/L minimum).
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)pH 7.4 at Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST; 7-day range 7.3–7.6
Within EPA's freshwater range: pH 7.4 is within the 6.5–9 range EPA gives for freshwater aquatic life.
Quality Criteria for Water 1986 (“Gold Book”): dissolved oxygen, Table 1; pH (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency)Turbidity 1.3 FNU at Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST; 7-day range 1.1–2 FNU
Water clarity: Turbidity measures the relative clarity of water: higher means murkier. No agency publishes a fishing threshold for it; compare with this gauge's own recent readings.
Turbidity and Water (U.S. Geological Survey)Specific conductance 74 µS/cm at Nov 5, 7:30 PM PST; 7-day range 73–74 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.
NWS observed 5.33 ft stage, 69 ft³/s at Nov 5, 7:00 PM PST (NWS gauge SCOO3; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
NWS has not set flood categories for this gauge.
Graphical forecasts are not available during times of high water, forecast crest information can be found in the local WFO web page.
