Rivers, lakes, and ramps, all in one place

Four rivers, Texas lake levels, and live Canyon Lake boat-ramp status, the same trustworthy government data, read like a guide instead of a spreadsheet.

Built by someone who’s run these rivers

Most river-conditions sites just mirror the same free government data. FloatTX is built by a Central Texas river guide who’s read these rivers since 2003 (by tube, raft, and fly rod) and spent a decade helping run one of the country’s largest outfitters. So the flow bands are what actually floats, and the hazards we flag are the ones that actually hurt people.

Straight from the source

Live USGS flows, TWDB lake levels, and NWS flood thresholds, pulled direct and translated into plain go / no-go language, with the source on every number.

Guide-tested

The flow bands come from real outfitter and river-guide experience, not a generic formula, so “good to float” actually means good to float.

Honest about safety

FloatTX informs, it’s never the go/no-go authority. We flag hazards, flooding, and stale readings, and always point you to confirm with local outfitters.
