Data Sources

Where Rogue Fly Fish gets its information.

Primary Data Sources

Rogue Fly Fish pulls directly from public, authoritative sources and presents that data in a format designed for anglers.

  • USGS (United States Geological Survey)
    River flow, stage, temperature, and historical gauge data.
    waterdata.usgs.gov
  • ODFW (Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife)
    Fishing regulations, zone rules, seasons, closures, and hatchery information.
    myodfw.com
  • NOAA / National Weather Service
    Weather forecasts, wind, precipitation, and marine conditions.
    weather.gov

How the Data Is Used

Rogue Fly Fish does not alter source data. Information is organized by river, section, and season so it’s easier to understand in real fishing contexts.

Some features add context — trends, comparisons, summaries — but no predictions or guarantees are made.

Important Notes

Regulations and conditions can change quickly. Always confirm in-season rules and emergency closures with ODFW before fishing.
