I've been reading it as high-muddy, low-clear?

Pretty much, but it's difficult to know just how clear/muddy just by looking at the graphs. There's no stated value for when the river becomes "fishable."

I fished the South branch in Califon yesterday. It was high and muddy but I still caught plenty of fish.
