Thread: Fall Bite and Cold Fronts

I am catching crappie on bottom, using minnow colored jigs, Water is around 68 degrees. They are holding around 8" deep. I let the jig hit bottom and start a slow retrieve, This is after fronts come through.

A barometer increase of 1/2" Hg following a cold front(big for a cold front passage) would only require fish to rise about 6" in the water to maintain equalibrium. This seems a pretty minor change to me. I think the the rapid cooling of the surface temperature has the larger effect forcing both fish and bait both deeper to minimize the rate of temperature change. Also, the 180 degree change in wind direction could also play a major role. Only the fish know for sure

Sure BRM, Please come in state and show me something and I'll do my best to go out of state to show you something. Sounds like more than a fair deal to me Budro.

Sounds fair to me.

I find it odd that no one wants me to show them about fishing Well, I really don't find it that odd, now that I think about it
