Daryl Bauer, one of the posters on this archived thread, is one of Dr. Willis former students and one of our State biologists. I am not sold on barometric changes being the "sole" reason fish behavior changes as there is a whole host of other changes going on at the same time during swings in the barometer. Keep in mind that the pressure changes at different depths are much greater than those that typically occurr in the atmosphere. So is it soley the barometer, or the other changes that are going on as well? I can tell you that I have had some fantastic days of fishing when the conventional wisdom regarding the just barometer changes says I shouldn't have.
