    Default low vs. high


    I Have Been Taught That Fish Bite Better In A Low Pressure Weather Pattern. I Read An Article Bill Dance Wrote And He Said A Cloudy Low Pressure Day Was Just As Bad Or Worse Than A Bluebird Day, Because It Made The Fish Suspend Off Shore. Any Comments

    I Had Always Been Told The Opposite But Heard That They Bite Better When It's Low Pressure. Let's See What The Consensus Is.

    I think that they will bite in either situation if you can find them.

    fish no matter what kind will bite better when the pressure is between 29.50 and 30.50 and moving inbetween but they bite the best when its closer to 30 and moving

    Just the opposite, never fish a falling barometer if you have a choice.

    Here is a website that I think does a good job of explaining barometic pressure and its effects on fishing.Bass & The Barometer

    Well, weather be d@mned, as my old grandad used to say, "The best time to go fishing is when you can." True then, true now.

    I have made great catches on the worst days but very few times. I have struck out on the very best of conditions. I watch the barometer, I have a fishing barometer right here on my wall, I read all the fishing calendars, keep up with the moon phase, check the wind direction, look at the tide table, all of it. However, I think the most important thing to know is (what depth). I still think the best time to fish is when you can go.
