Thread: barometer

If it's above zero, and I can go, I go.

I admit, I never look at it.

I ALWAYS SAY WORST DAY IS AFTER A FRONT , BLUE BIRD SKIES AND HIGH BAROMETRIC PRESSURE.

Barometric pressure has a lot to do with fishing,like nimrod the worst day is after a front.I have a cheap wall mount temp gauge,baro. graph and fish graph from wal-mart that is interesting to watch and you can see how the good days relate to the pressure.

in my opinion , barometric pressure is the most critical factor in a good bite and a slow or non existent bite, all other factors do play a part but pressure is the key ingredient!!!!

Rising, falling high or low..which is good and which is bad?

high pressure or rising pressure is usually the worst time to fish, a steady or rapid drop in pressure is when you will see fish most active or turned on, i dont pay much attention to it because i just fish when i have the opportunity, but you can bet on high pressure or a rising barometer the bite will not be as good

I've had some of my best fishing trips on overcast days with a light rain I've always heard it's because of a front moving through and the pressure dropping. But like Crappie Greg said when I get the opportunity I'm going regardless of the wether.

I've been on the water with a storm front moving in with fish biting so good it was tough to quit. I have been soaked but kept right on fishing as long as lighting was not too close .
