Simple barometers based on water columns or sealed aneroid chambers are easily made but offer little beyond a general indication of low or high pressure. With daily observation, readings can show rising or falling pressure. Changes in temp… read more
Most anglers know that a variety of factors can determine whether the fish are biting or not. This erratic behavior in fish can sometimes be linked to the barometric pressure. Fish have air bladders that are constantly adjusted to compensat… read more
Barometric pressure is the weight exerted by atmospheric gases at a particular point. As the pressure rises and falls, it brings a series of weather patterns and affects fish in complex ways that are difficult to predict. The changing air p… read more
Fishing can be a maddening affair at times as the fish bite really well one day only to go quiet the next. Experienced anglers have learned to watch the barometric pressure readings as this plays a major role in fish activity. read more
Standard barometric pressure as reported by weather stations has been converted to an equivalent sea level reading. Knowing how to convert a local barometer reading to this equivalent is essential in determining the actual barometric pressu… read more
Anglers have known for a very long time that barometric pressure affects fishing. Its changes seem to affect fresh and shallow water fishing the most. Barometric pressure is basically the measurement of the weight of air and a barometer is… read more
