9-7, just go up to the pinned:river levels at the top of the Buffalo River board, click on it, and click on the St. Joe site. That's the gage for the Buffalo in the Hwy. 65 area.

I go more by the flow in cfs (cubic feet per second)...if you're not familiar with the gage and the river, the river level in feet will mean nothing to you, but you can figure that a flow of 57 cfs, which is what it is right now, will be floatable but you'll scrape bottom in a lot of riffles and have to drag over some of them.

My rule of thumb for a medium width river like the Buffalo in that area is...under 50 cfs, it'll be a LOT of work to get down it. 50-75 cfs, you can float it but you'll scrape bottom and may have to walk a few riffles. Over 75 cfs, you'll be able to float most riffles unless you have a heavily loaded canoe full of camping gear. Over 100 cfs, it should be no problem.

Got back late today,floating was a little rough in places but we had a real good time.

Only caught 2 smallies they lived to fight another day.

Camping at tyler bend was great nice weather & great facilaties.

There was hardly anybody there due to low water i guess.
