After a significant warm weather rain event, the next day is usually bright and cooler, with a wind change to the NW. My experience with fishing is the bite is very poor on those days. When the storm is approaching, the bite is excellent, and feed trained fish are extra aggressive. I just experienced that with my BG and CC less than a half hour ago. We have a strong front approaching.
