Green River Streamflows
March 7, 2008.
Current flows on the river are about 810-840 cfs in the am, with flows higher in the pm.
The water temperature is currently at 58 degrees, and is slowly rising as the day temperature soar.
WATER QUALITY
Water quality rated poor, fair, good or excellent. Currently:
DAM TO LITTLE HOLE= Good to very good.
LITTLE HOLE TO RED CREEK= Good.
BELOW RED CREEK= Currently Running Stained after monsoonal rain, check before embarking on tripA NOTE ABOUT RED CREEK: Rain storms or early spring run-off may cause Red Creek (12 miles downstream from the dam) to flow on occasion, it effects depend on how much flow is occurring into the river-just a little, not bad-a lot, cloudy but usually can be fished with streamers. A heavy flow will cause the lower Green River to run completely red at times and be entirely un-fishable.

Utah Streamflows (Realtime) USGS streamflows on many Utah rivers, updated continuously. Does not include all trout streams.
Following are some additional links that give streamflows for many rivers in the Rockies. This information can be especially important during spring runoff season. The numbers won't mean much without some reference point, though. For instance, 4500 CFS is a moderate flow on the Big Horn, but 4500 CFS on the Green River is tougher fishing. Calls to local flyshops is your best bet to find out how fishable or unfishable the river is at its current flow.
Montana Streamflows (Realtime) Updated several times daily via satellite to the Internet. Rivers include the Blackfoot, Bitterroot, Flathead, Clarks Fork, Rock Creek, Missouri, Big Hole, Madison, Gallatin, Yellowstone and others. Some streams even include current water temperatures.
Colorado Streamflows (Realtime) This new USGS service is not quite as user-friendly as the Montana Streamflows, but it does recap the entire previous week in addition to latest flows.
