Baramoter & temp and their effect on fish bites

[raptor012]

What effect do these two factors have on fish biting? low vs high baramoter and temps for each?

Generally high pressure on barometer means bite is off and you need to move to smaller lures and/or slower retrieves for lures. With float fishing it is just plain slower. This is the case for most locations in the game. Right now until fixed Alaska is a complete wildcard and the barometer is not at all reliable and fixes are supposed to be coming.

Temps may play a part but as they are directly linked to particular weather patterns most of us just look at the weather in general and not the temp. Peak times are simply different for different weather patterns.

An odd choice by the devs (although made before the barometer came along) is sunny days are sometimes better for catching unis on some maps (Alberta for example) when the barometer is high pressure. Walleye being the complete opposite as you rarely see a uni caught on a sunny day.

when i first posted this i had caught 144 lbs of fish in CA on a sunny high baramoter day with 30 lb braid on my match rod setup. Today is a sunny day high baramoter using 25 lb flouro on my match rod and have caught 288 lb so far with a 37 lb uni striped bass in the mix. does flouro make that much of a differance? or is this possibly something to do with their server update? ideas?

Finished Sunny high baramoter day with 562 lb of fish in CA.

I have not really tested the differences. I use flouro by default whenever I can though and never have a problem filling nets.
