Does The Weather Effect Fish?

Does The Weather Effect Fish?

So, does the weather really effect fish? We all know it effects fishermen. Fishing for Steelhead in the cold and rain can be a horrible experience and make you wonder why you took up fishing in the first place, but does the weather effect the fish under the water? The weather and fish are as linked together as a pair of Siamese twins, and it has nothing to do with the comfort of the fisherman.
As a matter of fact it's not even about fish, its about all animals in nature. Have you ever noticed how the cows in your local field seem to huddle together as a storm approaches? And also how the woods become eerily quiet before the onset of a storm? What about the woods during and after a snowfall? After a snowfall, the woods are more quiet than a church where Mother Theresa is speaking. All of this has to do with the weather, and if it effects the woods and/or our environment so much, what do you think it does under the water?
The reason animals (and fish) know when the weather is changing or going to change is because they have the ability to notice the pressure changes in the atmosphere. That's right, fish notice the pressure changes in the atmosphere, and as the changes happen, they have to equalize the pressure in their bodies. While this is happening the last thing that fish are worried about is eating, so it's important for us anglers to not be fishing during these times. We, as anglers, want to be fishing when the fish are most active and not worrying about regulating pressure on their bodies. This only makes sense, huh?
So how do we find out when the best times to be fishing are? An easy way to figure out when the best times to fish are is to do a little research. And don't worry, this stuff isn't rocket science. As a matter of fact, This FREE report will teach you everything that you need to know. Many people try to make this stuff seem more difficult to understand than a college level calculus course, but it's not. It's really quite easy to understand.
The bottom line is that the weather does effect fish, and you as a fisherman need to know how. Fishing at the proper times is probably the biggest single factor to your fishing success. So grab a copy of the free e-book so you know that you're always fishing at the proper times. Believe me, you'll be glad you did.
