Map of USGS gauge 15239900 and the river around it
Where ANCHOR R NR ANCHOR POINT AK sits and our water's map point.
Federal guidance. Alaska Department of Fish and Game publishes no water-temperature line for trout anglers that we found. The lines below are the National Park Service's, federal guidance, not a Alaska rule:
Under the federal 68°F line. Water 35.2°F now; the highest in the last 24 hours was 36.9°F. That is under the 68°F at which the National Park Service, at Grand Teton National Park, recommends anglers stop fishing in the afternoon (“cease fishing at 2 p.m. when water temperatures are likely to exceed 68°F”). Water warms through the afternoon, so check again later in the day: “Carry a pocket thermometer to monitor water temperature.”
Steady over 24 hours (gauge height +0.02 ft). 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 Anchor River: Rainbow/steelhead trout.
Source: ADF&G Southcentral sport fishing regulations, Kenai Peninsula: catch-and-release for rainbow/steelhead or cutthroat trout, Arctic char/Dolly Varden, lake trout or Arctic grayling (Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Division of Sport Fish).
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)Cold water. Water 35.2°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)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 1.44 ft stage, 328 ft³/s at Nov 5, 5:45 PM AKST (NWS gauge APTA2; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are issued routinely during the warm season, and as needed at other times of the year.
