Readings come from USGS monitoring location 01396790, Spruce Run Reservoir at Clinton NJ, 0.8 miles from the center of Spruce Run Reservoir. It reports reservoir elevation and water temperature. Values refresh every 30 minutes and are provisional until the agency reviews them. Readings describe the reservoir at the gauge; a shallow arm miles upstream will not match them.
The gauge is half the picture. The other half is what came out of the water: verified catches, the current record, and the anglers holding it.
