Willow Creek is a freestone river in Idaho, listed as Special-regulation trout water by Idaho Department of Fish and Game.
3 USGS gauges on the water report flow. 2 guides and 3 shops nearby are listed here.
Willow Creek is a freestone river in Idaho. Idaho has 33 waters named Willow Creek in the USGS Geographic Names Information System; this page is the stream whose mouth is in Bonneville County, the one the agency list names.
Pick one of its USGS gauges and hear from us when the flow moves into or out of its usual range for the date, or crosses a flow you set. We check the public USGS reading every 2 hours and email only when it crosses, at most once every 6 hours. Flow alone is not a fishing forecast or a safety call.
Signed in: one step. Otherwise we email a confirmation link first. Every alert has one-click links to stop it.
Start from the agency's public access map. Nothing on this page grants or implies access: check the agency map, posted signs and landowner permission before you fish.

Seasons, limits, special regulations and closures for each reach are on the agency pages below. Read them before you go.
Each comes from the agency's own published list; where the list names a reach it is quoted. A designation applies to the listed reach, not necessarily the whole water. Listed in the finder under trout.
On the Special Rule Waters (trout / salmon / gear rules) list (Idaho Department of Fish and Game, read 2026-11-05). All waters with this designation
Measured from the NHDPlus High Resolution (flowlines and waterbodies) (U.S. Geological Survey, read 2026-11-04) for this water’s own mapped feature. Rounded figures; they describe the channel, not today’s conditions.
Whole Willow Creek, not only this reach.
Areas the Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US), public access (U.S. Geological Survey, Gap Analysis Project, read 2026-11-05) lists as owned or held in easement and open to the public, crossed by the mapped channel of the whole Willow Creek. Boundaries are mapped, not surveyed. Nothing on this page grants or implies access: check the agency map, posted signs and landowner permission before you fish.

Normal for Nov 5: 27–52 ft³/s (middle half of 43 years of record). Now: 27.7 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 27.7 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 43 years of record (1978–2026): 10th 22, 25th 27, median 39, 75th 52, 90th 68 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 12 ft³/s, highest 73.8 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 12.3%, from 31.6 to 27.7 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.
NWS observed 2.28 ft stage, 28 ft³/s at Nov 5, 3:30 PM MST (NWS gauge WTXI1; its stage datum can differ from the USGS gauge height).
Forecasts are not available. Only observed stages are available for this point.

Normal for Nov 5: 0–137 ft³/s (middle half of 46 years of record). Now: 0 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 0 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 46 years of record (1975–2026): 10th 0, 25th 0, median 0, 75th 137, 90th 353 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0 ft³/s, highest 616 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 (+0% 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.
Below NWS action stage. The National Weather Service reports this gauge below its action stage. That is not a statement that wading is safe.

No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Idaho Fish and Game uses are 66°F and 73°F.
This gauge is on our page for Willow Creek, but no agency page we read lists its species.

Normal for Nov 5: 0–0 ft³/s (middle half of 42 years of record). Now: 0 ft³/s, normal.
Normal for this date. 0 ft³/s is between the 25th and 75th percentiles of daily mean flow for Nov 5 at this gauge over 42 years of record (1979–2026): 10th 0, 25th 0, median 0, 75th 0, 90th 10 ft³/s.
Daily means on record for Nov 5: lowest 0 ft³/s, highest 145 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 (+0% 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.
The National Weather Service has no flood-stage gauge here, so no official flood category is shown.
No current water-temperature reading at this gauge, so no temperature guidance is given. Take a stream thermometer: the trout lines Idaho Fish and Game uses are 66°F and 73°F.
This gauge is on our page for Willow Creek, but no agency page we read lists its species.
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.
Checked Nov 5, 4:19 PM MST; readings refresh at most every 15 minutes and statistics daily. Provisional USGS data can be revised. Conditions change: re-check before you go. This is general guidance, not a fishing forecast, a safety guarantee or a statement about access.
