Excellent job! Thank you. I look forward to more of your presentations on the effects of weather related phenomenon to fishing (water clarity, light penetration in water and bass, etc.).
Awesome job, Rebecca. Your video was very informative and helped me to better understand why I can most of the time find fish, but they will not bite and had no idea how the barometric pressure could have been affecting them, because I did not have this knowledge. Can you also give me some better understanding how moon phases affect fishing? Thanks again 👍😊
Great Video. I always thought it had more to do with the direct effect on the fish, which seemed difficult to accept due to the minor influence that would be and less on the weather and enviromental changes. Well thought out on this video.
Loved the video. Thanks for the information. Can you please make a video describing the best way to forecast fishing times using the barometric pressure and the moon phase or tables?
That would be a hard one as barometric pressure is going to be related to the weather...and as we know it is unpredictable at times. The best bet is to watch the moon phases video and track that with your local weather.
Awesome vid very informative... just waiting on more info about deeper sonar... this will determine if I buy it or not since I bank fish... thanks again for the awesome vid
Awesome video. I really like learning the science behind the phenomena we see while fishing. How quickly are bass capable of adjusting pressure in their swim bladders?
An atmosphere of pressure is added for every 10 meters depth, therefore if a fish is very deep and brought to the surface quickly it can have effects similar to that of the bends found in human divers. When fishing beyond 10 to 20 meters you need to allow the fish time to fight and slowly bring them up.
I really enjoy these vids! Would you have any information on algae blooms? Such as what causes this, does it affect the quality of the water, is it good or bad for the fish?
Thanks Chris!! Algae blooms are a rapid increase in the population of the particular species. There are many species of algae and many factors that can cause a bloom. Algae blooms are generally not ideal for fish populations. I'll do a video on this and talk about algae blooms in freshwater as well as the species, causes and effects.
That's great we're I fish at it's like hitting a switch just last week . I was catching good fish went the next day high pressure moved in they quit eating . I waited until lower pressure moved in catching them again . thanks a lot I have watched all three videos and they have helped when to go fishing and were I should be fishing in the water column. If u have any information on rivers . I would be glad to watch a video on that
Thanks for watching Brandon! Glad the videos are helping you out. I'm hoping to cover all freshwater systems, so Rivers will be coming up at some point.
I've been looking at the Weatherunderground and notice that most of the pressure drops are beginning in the afternoon. So far none of those attempts in the afternoon have been working for me. Most of my successful catches are during the morning and that's where the pressure climbing. These observations appear to contradict your theory and I'm sure that I must have done something wrong and wondering if you can explain?
Nice job, Rebecca. So does the change in atmospheric pressure make much of a difference to a fish? it seems that it would be negligible when compared to the hydrostatic pressure. I'm imagining your 1 inch column example extending into the water to the bottom. How does a 1 inch rise in barometric pressure effect the water below it?
Atmospheric pressure affects the surface of the water. The example I give is at sea level. It's more about the change the pressure has with the weather than with any direct pressure influence on the fish.
Great video explaining the science of Barometric Pressure. I would love to have seen you give some examples of the math using a 3, 8, or 10lb Bass with the hydrostatic equilibrium. I'm a network engineer however it may boar most however.
Here's the equation that I found for hydrostatic equilibrium and stability in static position: p=density; v=volume; f=fish; w-water; W=submerged weight; B=buoyancy force (1) W=(pf)(Vf)(g) (2) B=(Pw)(Vw)(g) (3) W=B The center of buoyancy for a fish with a swim bladder will be the same as the center of volume. Not sure if that helps you or not.
Hi Becca. Ill tell u what it definitely effects my head! Im a human Barometer! And...thats the name if my company i want to start. Barometric Baits. Plz tell Jim ill need him as a consultant when i actually get around to it. Haha. Thanks you two! Keep it up! Man i have a killer migraine right now. So ironic you uploaded this today. Take care.
Yeah Science! Break it down. Great video. It would be awesome if we could get underwater footage during these pressure changes and lunar phases and show how fish behavior is affected by our planets weather system.
Good video. May I suggest people take into account that water is incompressible. I do believe that atmospheric pressure (weather) will at time cause fish to feed or shut down. However, it has nothing to do with high atmospheric pressure 'shrinking ' their swim bladders and or expanding their stomachs, creating hunger. I have heard that theory so many times and I simply cannot understand how people believe that such a minute pressure change in the atmosphere could affect the fish through an incomressible medium. End rant.
Nick Skerrett Exactly bro!!! I was thinking the same thing! The barometric pressure can hardly have an effect on the water pressure. A gas pressure's influence on a liquid's pressure is negligible. All it really is is the light intensity during the two ranges of barometric pressure. Low pressure systems tend to yield to clouds and low light conditions (favorable for the bite) while high pressure systems produce bird blue days most of the time (sending fish deep to escape the intense unfiltered sunlight). That's all it is. Myth debunked.
Thank you, and I agree. I hoped I was clear on that in the video. It's the weather caused by the pressure change not the pressure itself affecting the fish.
Just the opposite. The shallower the fish, the more pressure affects the fish. Deeper fish are less affected by barometric pressure compared to shallower fish. That's why, say after a rain storm, the sky clears,the shallow bite shuts down, where the deeper off shore bite may just slow down.
Tabitha Blankenship in my experience fish tend to bite better in the transition from high pressure to low pressure the best. After the transition fishing in low pressure is good.
... If I may, - Steady pressure 29.92. - Falling from 29.92, that is when a front is approaching. The saying is, "Fish in front of a front." The theory (or facts are) the fish are more comfortable and their strike zone is greater, more likely to chase a lure. Spinnerbaits, crankbaits, chatterbaits, topwater, etc. - They know that a high pressure system will follow after the front passes and they will not be feeding much during that time so they will eat as much as then can while they are comfortable. - High pressure, blue bird skies, shallow fish are less comfortable, tighter to cover, smaller strike zone, less likely to chase a lure. Fish IN cover w/ jigs, worms, slow moving lures. .
Nice vid! liked it. Tell Jim to get you some nicer teaching aids!!He's got all nice equipment YOU need some to LoL. What about solar table and fishing times?
Barometric pressure doesn't affect fish directly. The swim bladder is more than capable to compensate for it. Pressure affects plankton which affects bait fish which affects bass.
very technical almost too much, I need the dumb down version. lol. I was good until you started talking about fish and how the pressure will affect their depths. I never got at what depths you would find fish during low or high pressure days? my understanding of low pressure is that Bass will go on a feed because they can feel the change, is this true? I enjoy the information of your videos please keep them coming!
I have a different take on this phenomenon. The amount of lumens, whether from the moon or artificial lighting, such as boat docks, have a pronounced affect on bait fish and that bass being predators, will feed on them with the least amount of exertion or energy to satisfy their hunger or metabolism. Barometric pressure changes probably have more affect on the bait fish more so than the bass themselves. Black bass are more laid back and even lazy if you compare them to striped bass, as far as a predator species. Black bass are territorial and hang out in sheltered structures. They will only swim to other locations as the water temperature changes, tide movements or seasonal changes for spawning. Find those live bait congregation areas and you'll find those game fish. Black bass and stripers like those easy victims in their diets. "No Bait Fish Around... No Tight Lines"
I love this video thank you so much, But one thing I like to add that I know is key especially for fish like lake trout or salmon etc......when fishing/trolling for those fishing is always key to find certain water Temps, example for Lake trout on Lake Michigan usually wherever the water temp is between 47° to 52° witch may be 60 feet deep say in June, That's where the feeding zone is Hence where you want your bait. I know Im rambling on but I wonder what kind of relation Hi/low pressure and water Temps have in common? Thanks again for the awesome video it's much appreciated 🎣🖒✌ ~Jaime from Michigan
Generally low pressure is bringing in some form of cool or warm front and cloudy conditions...so the effect the pressure would have on the water would be dependent upon whatever type of front it's bringing with it that can affect the surface water temps. Generally when you speak of temperature and pressure they're directly proportional according to Guy-Lussac's law and that is in a gaseous state. Remember water has 3 phases, liquid, vapor and solid
Hey I'll click.. been watching lots of dudes talking about pressure. This is easier on the eyes.. Gravity is a still unproven phenomenon. Imaging it holds the oceans to a spinning ball but you have no trouble walking and wood just floats birds just fly. So a non existence substance causes pressure because gravity. No its density, this is how everything worksn and ballons just defy fake gravity. And no an apple falling foesnt prove gravity its simply and observation of density. Yes i mean look all around you, its a flat earth. Good luck, dont freak out. Understand the world you live in
I learned so much from this series. I can't wait to learn about sonar and if affects the fish :)
Thank you Ismael!!
Excellent job! Thank you. I look forward to more of your presentations on the effects of weather related phenomenon to fishing (water clarity, light penetration in water and bass, etc.).
Lots of good info, I am going to have to watch it again to try and grasp all of this!! Thank you
Thanks for watching Earl!
great stuff, i think you did a great job helping people have a better understanding of this subject.
Thanks Jarid!!
Yes, thank you Rebecca. Could you do a presentation on what scientists know or theorize about fish eyesight.
Thank you for presenting that info in an understandable way. I actually think I understand it now.
Thanks Roy!!

Good explanation Rebecca, thanks
So in regards to fishing do you place more emphasis on moon phase or barometric pressure?
amazing explanation!! i think it will help my fishing.
Appreciate the comment Luke!

The center of buoyancy for a fish with a swim bladder will be the same as the center of volume. Not sure if that helps you or not.
TackleJunky81 so what I'm thinking is now we can use this to see if there is a correlation between depth, size, and barometric pressure.
Excellent video I learned a lot thank you

Excellent info!! Guys, how cool would it be to have a wife that not only fished, but who was into the SCIENCE of fishing!! That would rock! Lol
She's a keeper!
Thanks.
I'm wondering if the fish would move shallower during high pressure times, and deeper during low pressure times.
It's more about the weather that the pressure change brings than the direct pressure on the fish.
Just the opposite. The shallower the fish, the more pressure affects the fish. Deeper fish are less affected by barometric pressure compared to shallower fish. That's why, say after a rain storm, the sky clears,the shallow bite shuts down, where the deeper off shore bite may just slow down.
Thanks for the info I also am excited for the lunar video!
Thanks Tj!!
Awesome video! I dont know what it is that I now know but dang it sure sounds good! LOL
Thanks Al!!
Does fish bite better during high or low pressure
Tabitha Blankenship in my experience fish tend to bite better in the transition from high pressure to low pressure the best. After the transition fishing in low pressure is good.

I saw at the end that you already made that video.
wow. great video!
Thank you!
awesome video, I think now that you have made a few videos I think it's about time Jim got you a bigger board lol.
LOL, thanks for watchin!!
Nice vid! liked it. Tell Jim to get you some nicer teaching aids!!He's got all nice equipment YOU need some to LoL. What about solar table and fishing times?
LOL, thanks Jeff!! I'll have a video up soon on Solunar theory.
sweet thanks

Keep a look out for the Solunar video coming soon. Thanks for watchin!!
You're very pretty
Great video and very informative!!!!!
