Thread: Best Fishing Weather Patterns

Welcome to c.c !! Can't help ya on the bp .I just go fishing and if I haven't had a bite in about 3o mins I move on .some say pay attention to the animals if they stirring and the birds is chirping fish ought to be biting.

I've been waiting for a response.i have the same questions about the weather having such an affect.

Go up to the right side of the screening to the state board/main board in the lil search engine window type in barometric. And hope you have some spare time lots and lots of info/opinions on it.or anything else to do with crappie fishing

I've always been told a high pressure situation will push the fish down while a low pressure system will bring the fish up. So far, this year, we have done well when the barometric pressure is stable - meaning it's not falling or rising. From my past as a trout fisherman, the fish will bite better in a low pressure condition. But fish will always feed each and every day, you just have to be where they are to take advantage. One thing I used to watch closely when I deer hunted was the Solunar Tables - it used the moon phases as well as the moon's position in the sky, relative to where you are, to predict major and minor feeding periods. It was pretty accurate most of the time. By that I mean it was accurate during stable weather conditions. I've found them to be reasonably accurate for crappie fishing as well. But there are really no absolutes. And then, there's the wind. East is least and West is best, or so they say. This one seems to be a good predictor of the bite. Around here, an East wind is usually swinging to the South bringing moisture up from the Gulf and a rapid barometric pressure drop as well - putting the fish down till things stabilize out. Just too many variables. Basically we fish when we can and try to ignore all the mysticism of crappie fishing.

Good info.if I can go I'll go.lol.but I'm trying to learn all this stuff.ive learned they are the pickiest thing I've ever been after.

One thing you can basically rely on - as the water temps go up this time of year, the fishes metabolism will speed up. The result is they get more agressive and willing to chase their food. They should bite better on that premise alone.

I do agree with slabprowler if the animals are moving we generally have a good day,also if we notice that if the cattle are all lying down,it's gonna be a tough day catching fish.i believe the bp has a lot to do with the depths that the fish are caught.just my 2 pennies worth

You can catch fish on no matter the weather. Now that being said it's a lot harder after a cold front. I think your problem is fishing one place to long. If you haven't got a bite pretty quick move. I'm not going to stay more than 30mi in one place for night fishing. For days even less time maybe 10min per spot.
