I’ve caught limits of speckled trout deep and shallow in every air pressure that Louisiana experiences.
In my humble opinion, it’s correlation, not causation.
The only angler I found that efficiently explains this to my simpleton mind is Buck Perry in his book Spoonplugging. Essentially what he says is that air pressure happens at the same time far more important things happen (i.e. high wind and temp drops) during a cold front. Or overcast weather, such as when the air pressure is low.
Going off air pressure to determine when and where to go fishing is, in my opinion, right there with getting your palm read. Same for solunar feed periods. Might as well be astrology.
I’m open to any and all new information and will change my mind if presented with a good argument.
