Here’s THE Behind Barometric Pressure And Catching Bass…

[@gillgetter3004]

A fishing buddy of mine would say, wind out of the east fish bite least, wind out of the west fish bite best!! But he and I fished some real high pressure systems, he was always ready to go. He’s passed now and he is always with me even when I’m fishing alone.

[@nathanielpudwellksi2506]

I've heard similar only adding wind from the north don't go forth and wind from the south blows the bait into the fishes mouth

[@562handsomemike]

I got an old timer ghost with me every time. I hope he know I hear his voice saying, “one…two…three…” every time I tie a knot. 🥰🤝

[@562handsomemike]

I heard “wind out of the south, bait goes in their mouth” too. Makes me stop on the way home every time. Lol

[@matthewriordan1703]

I wear the same John Deere hat my fishing partner that passed used to wear. He’s with me in the pictures too!

[@fishaholic122]

Thank the boys for being so cool an quiet, they did good

[@dancook8583]

Thanks Randy. I took notes and put them in a ziplock baggie. Gonna put it in my tackle bag. Got a couple other "notes" of yours in there also.

[@frankhiatt4271]

Great info. In my experience I caught my best fish during the worst weather conditions.

[@NeilGraham.I.M.F]

Great topic. Nothing Beats just before and during the beginning of a rain. My absolute favorite time to get out there

[@DominusEstOK]

Great stuff Randy. Loved watch the eldest of your two boys quieting down your younger son during the video.

[@clintperry799]

Caught 4 , today , 6lbs total . No pictures. Thanks Randy !

[@malcolmzoll7613]

Thanks Randy you always bring Great information, really like your channel 👍

[@randyblaukatintuitive]

Much appreciate it man!

[@ADKMuskyFoolonFly63]

Thanks Randy, that's what I was looking for. It helps to know you confirm some relevance of barometric pressure. Appreciate the more important message of seeing the forest through the trees and that one must consider all important variables that affect fish behavior when fishing as you so clearly stated. As always your expertise and concise logical approach to fishing and life greatly appreciated. Best part of this video was watching your son in the back seat doing all he could do to not open the box with the toy truck and boat inside then finally giving in at the end. He tried his best. Awesome kids you got there. Hope you all are having a great time.

[@MajorPhartz1]

Livin’ in rural East Texas (between T Bend and Rayburn), I’ve learned to watch the cattle. If they’re up and grazin’, fishing should be good. If they’re all layin’ down, you’ve got your work cut out for ya….

[@danlaminger5265]

Thanks. Great info as usual. Hope you and your family have a great trip

[@johnhermenet]

Randy i love the Video and has helped me decide how to fish for the day but you said the are outher factors that are more inportant!!! could you do a video on that would really appreciate it if you could

[@outdoorsman4245]

Love your channel Randy. The sheer amount of fishing pressure now days is staggering to me. What videos you recommend folks watch to address the high fishing pressure and how to build skills to catch highly pressured bass?

[@ricardonercolini6053]

Good lesson!!! Thank you VERY MUCH!

[@kennyg3192]

And honestly I try to follow that pressure as you’re speaking today and with the certain way of the moon what do you do when you got the opposite of what you need of the moon and the pressure do you fish totally away from everything so close your self from wind 💨 Thanks for everything brother all your info as usual , hope you and a family have a safe return and on the next tournament think outside the box use some of your old rhythm life‘s repeating itself here’s a 25 year mark Randy do what you Gotta do brother I pray for you I pray for a Bridgeford food and you guys in your beef jerky I hope I said that right take care Randy

[@ernestpaling5097]

Randy, how does the barometer tie into the various moon phases? I'm at a point where I want to learn more of the scientific aspects of the game and you have already figured it out. Great material as always! Thanks!

[@charlesgrahammacleodstuart510]

Barometric pressure plays an enormous role as the pressure is based on the moon phases.

[@slimetime4668]

@@charlesgrahammacleodstuart510 Meh temp, altitude, and moisture are the main factors of barometric pressure…moon also impacts it but it’s more of a consistent impact

[@ricksonora6656]

It doesn’t. Not significantly, compared to how it affects feeding due to lighting at night. It also affects tidal forces, which freshwater fish somehow sense, but that’s controversial. If you want to understand this stuff, take (or refresh) first-year college classes on physics and chemistry, and then a class in meteorology. You can find Solunar tables or graphs, which link sunlight and moonlight to fishing conditions during clear weather, on many web pages and fishing apps. The bottom line, though, is learning how to adapt to the conditions you have.

[@ernestpaling5097]

Thanks guys for all of the info. I thought that barometric pressure was a function of weather, i.e., high pressure versus low pressure etc. Looks like I have some research to do.

[@ricksonora6656]

@@ernestpaling5097 That’s correct. I think I’d use “factor” rather than “function,” just to be nit-picky about it. The different factors affect each other, and they are affected by each other.

[@russellmann3407]

Awesome video !!!

[@dennisrudloff2071]

Thanks. Can you give us some numbers? What is “normal” pressure? What number would be considered low or high?

[@fallingironreks83]

Good flick. Have u ever done one on a power plant lake?

[@kennyg3192]

Hey Randy this is one of your favorite KZbin followers I back you Johny and Matt, I listen to you guys one thing I know you said go into the break Lake breakdowns and I’m not sure exactly if I got it right but I’m in Baltimore Maryland as always when I speak we don’t have guess areas around close like a lot of states and even one a lot of states reservoirs they’re allowed to use gas motors we’re not allowed here in Maryland and some of the best fission is on reservoirs that need a electrical motor and if you don’t have a lot of money and I’m not joking the price they won’t freeze electric ray motors it’s unreal I just want to know what would be your best three swim baits or three baits. What would you use and how would you use them and I Reservoir here in Maryland at Lock Raven where they rent boats and it’s very pressured on a good day you got maybe 90 private boats 30 rentable boats and then you got about 300 people bank fishing throughout the whole reservoir daily in areas where the fish used to be they’re not and I know you did a thing on us before about where fish go and do they stay at the same spot that they’ve been for decades I would just like to know if you were to visit Maryland and you came to Carroll county Maryland and you fished pony run Reservoir what would be your three baits to use they have Hydrilla and half of the reservoir which is man-made has about four coves of lily pads that go down to the bottom and they’re like tree branches I fish the edges what three main lures would you start off with in frogs ain’t happening and it’s sad to see with Lily pads you have better luck with a pop r

[@terrytresemer2864]

Well said !

[@clghidra]

Hey Randy love ur channel and subscribe and like ; ) … have u done a bit on lures and techniques for getting suspended bass?

[@randyblaukatintuitive]

A little bit but a good idea

[@kellymoore4517]

Wind outa the east, fishing the least!

[@SpookyRedz]

Good one

[@nickt423]

Hi Randy, off topic but do any ribbontail style worms actually float? Some are labeled as floating but they actually sink.

[@ricksonora6656]

I have a lot more plastics than I need, and no bait budget left over after buying gasoline. So I started thinking about modifying cheap lures and worms to make the more massive baits that the pros use. One mod would be including transparent or colored plastic tubes to give lures positive buoyancy.

[@stevesteve4350]

I was waiting for Elijah to tear that box open. Congrats on the new rig little man. Great stuff. Good luck Kim!!!!

[@stevesteve4350]

Did you bring a canoe for Lake Mead? Sorry that was a bad joke. Huge problem that needs a solution now and widely ignored in the news. Thanks

[@CommonSenseFishing209]

Barometric pressure ties in directly with temperature. Charles or Boyles law. Forgot which. Temp goes up then pressure goes up. Temp goes down so does pressure. Pressure and temperature correlate.

[@Rusty6003]

That's really only true if the gas (or air) is confined within a container. Not true of the atmosphere.

[@CommonSenseFishing209]

@@Rusty6003 you may be right.

[@academicmailbox7798]

One of the rivers that Matt Stefan would have bank fished in the city I think.

[@academicmailbox7798]

One of the rivers in Illinois State, the local club had a guest speaker on their seminar series. A while back. The seminar was from April month in 2021. And he explained something quite fundamental. He said that small mouth bass. Pretty much eat all of the time. However, he reckons that with large mouth bass. There are windows of time. He reckons around forty-five minutes. For approximately three times a day. When large mouth bass will eat. And switch off then for large amounts of time (one of the time periods he discovered when fishing three different rivers or ponds). Was an hour or three-quarters of an hour. Before it got dark each evening. In one of the ponds or lakes. It was earlier. And on another one it was later. It was consistent though. It happened every evening of each day.

[@academicmailbox7798]

It is on the channel of DRiFT, or DuPage River Fly Tyers. Has a full seminar given by Bob Clouser (inventor of something known as the Clouser minnow fly). The seminar is very wide in scope though. It talks about the color of flies that Bob uses for his bass fishing. In clear low water conditions. In warm water. Worth a look at. An angler who fishes for bass. From his Jon boat. Everywhere from northern lakes like Lake Michigan. To saltwater in Florida. And everything in between I think. He's a famous angler in fly fishing.

[@ricksonora6656]

@@academicmailbox7798 That’s very useful information. Thank you. Unfortunately, I’m chronically sleep-deprived, so I dozed twice due to the strain of constantly reassembling the phrases into sentences. Now I’m going to look for that channel you recommended. Again, thank you.

[@bigc8018]

Randy, why do fish usually bite better on a low pressure situation?

[@slimetime4668]

Yes

[@240LTS]

...If I may answer- Most times humans can't feel the BP but shallow fish, < 8'+/-, can. It is literally pressure on the water from the atmosphere. Have you ever heard someone say, "I feel the weather is changing because of the pain in my joints or pain in an old injury"? That can be BP changing, humidity, changing etc. . On a low pressure system, the BP is dropping, cloud cover building, low light penetrating the water, front moving in, maybe rain in the forecast, the fish are most stable therefore their strike zone is greater, more willing to chase bait/lures. That's why it is called, "Fish in front of a front." Being what they are, creatures in the environment, instinctively they know a high pressure system will follow the front that is coming and with the high BP, they will be feeding less so, they better eat everything in sight now while they are at their best. With their strike zone increased and willing to chase food to eat, faster, bigger lures may do the trick . High pressure (after a front passes, high blue bird BRIGHT skies) puts, "pressure", on the water and shallow fish, making them feel uncomfortable, unstable. That is why they are tighter to cover and their strike zone is reduced greatly. As Randy mentioned, fishing slow, small baits, lots of scent, etc. Keeping the lure in the fish's face (hopefully) longer may get a strike. The strike can be light and the fish may not move off with the lure so pay attention to your line where it enters the water for any slight tic. Going the other way, fishing fast like rattle traps, burning a spinner-baits (willow leaf blades), jerk-baits for examples may get a reaction strike. . Keep in mind, water temps, tides, current, water rising or falling, water clarity, available cover, available forage, fishing pressure, boat traffic, foul odor (gas, sunscreen, etc.) on your hands then touching lures, etc. all can play a factor if fish are willing to bite. That's what makes it so challenging. How may times have we heard, "You should have been here yesterday!" :-) or, "Man, they started biting as soon as you left!" :-0 or "Why are you catching them and I'm not! We are fishing the exact same thing!?" Wishing everyone, tight lines. . Jeff . bay_boat_life Light tackle for all species. .
