Q: What is the water temperature on Conneaut Creek?

72.7°F (22.6°C) as of Aug 1, 2026, 6:30 PM UTC, at USGS gauge 04212895. Trout come under thermal stress above about 68°F, and Montana FWP restricts angling when max daily water temperature reaches 73F for 3 consecutive days. This reading is at or above the 68°F stress threshold — many anglers stop fishing and conservation groups ask that trout not be played in warm water.

USGS gauge

Flow measured Aug 1, 2026, 6:30 PM UTC at gauge 04212895. Temperature measured Aug 1, 2026, 6:30 PM UTC at gauge 04212895. These are build-time snapshots, not a live feed — check the USGS gauge before relying on them.

This water was above the trout-stress threshold

Conneaut Creek read 72.7°F as of Aug 1, 2026, 6:30 PM UTC. Trout come under thermal stress above roughly 68°F, and mortality after catch-and-release rises sharply in warm water. Montana FWP restricts angling when max daily water temperature reaches 73F for 3 consecutive days.

At or above that threshold many anglers stop fishing for the day, fish early morning only, or move to colder water. We are reporting a measurement, not issuing an advisory — check your state agency for any restriction actually in force.
