Is high pressure or low pressure better to catch fish?

Question

Sorry, I'm talking about barometric pressure.

Answer 1

Neither. Constantly low pressure is no better than constantly high.

What really matters is CHANGING pressure. Changing pressure generally precedes a weather change and fish tend to feed more actively in the days (or even hours) leading up to a weather change.

So, if you know a front is blowing in....especially a cold front...get out on the river!!!

Answer 2

If you are talking about fishing pressure, then low is definately better, the fish are easier to catch cuz they haven't seen many human methods, but if you mean barometric pressure then i have no idea.

Answer 3

any time the barometer starts dropping it triggers all type of creatures to start moving to find food. raccoon would feed up because they didn't know when they would eat again if a bad storm moved in. same for fish. after the front moves thru, you sometimes get the bluebird skies and the fish turn off, or so it seems. you can still catch them but you have to fish in the weeds or in the wood. they just bury themself a little deeper in the cover.

Answer 4

Honey, I caught a literal thousand trouts and I can tell you that it doesn't seem to make much difference. There's two times that it's easier to catch fish; 1, when there's a flood on and the trout are running the river, 2, when the sun's in their eyes- they can't see us coming so easily.

Btw, they also feel the vibration if people shout so we need to use stealth.

Answer 5

low. it usually proceeds a strong front. fish have a tendency to fill up.

Answer 6

low coming from the south is best in UK but north would be **** in any country.
