Yesterday, standing on the boat ramp at a local lake, I had an interesting conversation with a man about the effects of a high barometer. Fishing was slow for everyone there. He stated that he rarely went lake fishing when high pressure was in place but with holiday week this was his only chance. I wonder if what he mentioned was correct. I know off the beach in the Sound I prefer grey, drizzling weather. Could this also be true on lakes.? What opinion do you all hold.?
