Barometer`

[Marks]

How much attention to you pay to the barometer readings on your fishing trips and do you think it makes a big difference.

i do not pay alot of attention to it because i am going to fish no matter what, but yes i can tell alot a difference between a high and low pressure day, or anytime their is a sudden change up or down.

Same here.

So do you consider rising barometric pressure worse than falling?

[Darryl Morris]

I look at it most every day. I do think it makes a difference as much as it is an indicator of what the weather is doing. It doesn't stop me from fishing though. Sometimes just another challenge to conquer.

It's true the atmospheric pressure has an effect on the fishing, and like Jerry I check it daily. The pressure tells me what to expect when I get to the water. That's another tool we use to judge the fishes location, or disposition.

How does the pressure tell you what to expect when you get to the water?

I also check it daily. Doesn't stop me from fishing either. I've learned ,over the years, that when its high, fish will hold tight to cover and i'd better have a lot of extra jigs.:D

Alot.

Yes,I am tracking it everyday.I have found that it does make alot of difference
Pressure Trend: Correlates to changing weather patterns.Which means alot
to location of the fish.

I got built in barometers. One in each lower cheeks, couple in my foot, and one in the back of my head. Honey says the one in my is the one that works.

Yep. She said my head was like a bellows. Full of air. Wonder what she meant?
