Totally agree. Everyone knows the deeper you go in water, the higher the pressure. It seems the fish would adjust by moving up if the barometric pressure increases.

I dunno. . Water weighs a lot more than air. Do a check on how much pressure is on a fish at 8 ft below the water surface just from the weight of water versus just 2ft higher or lower in the water column and compare that with how much a low versus high atmospheric pressure really varies. Here's the math.. a 1 inHg change in air pressure is 0.49 psi. For every 1 ft increment below the surface, the water column adds another 0.43 psi. I'm sure you'll agree that active fish will readily move at least a couple feet or more up and down in the water column when feeding. I don't believe the air pressure difference alone from a weather change is adequate to explain the change in fish feeding habit.

Does it drop more than that when you have a thunderstorm roll through?

You are correct about your findings. Changes in barometric pressure ARE indicative of things like temperature changes, wind, brightness, cloud cover, and more. But, water is essentially incompressible. So, to the extent air of any density is pushing down on much denser water . . . it'd just expand the surface area of the lake fractionally. So, anyway, barometric pressure DOES often signal changing weather events that DO affect fishing results. But, a definite no to fish down at any depth feeling more or less pressure because of air pressure. Tons of little science demos on the internet. One is water in a plastic sandwich bag with a drinking straw in it. If it is squeezed, the pressure doesn't collapse the straw, it shoots water out through the straw. Squeezing the bag reduces its volume, water squirts out to equalize the volume . . . just like a lake. Good vids, by the way!

@wazjr1

Жыл бұрын

Water is non compressible as you say. In order to deform the surface of the lake there would have to be a portion of the lake that had a different pressure. Applied evenly there would be no action/reaction . There is no density change. The pressure is carried through the water as if it were solid. If there were an isolated area of higher pressure over the lake surface there would be a minute difference in the water level at that point. Similar to how wind creates waves. You can feel the waves when you are diving in the ocean. People actually get sea sick while under water. An empty scuba tank will float while a full tank will sink.

You bet! It’s not a temperature reading it’s measuring in “inHg”. Basically measuring the weight of the air on the surface.

One thing I've never understood is the effect of air pressure change on fish. A big swing in barometric pressure would be 2 in Hg (lets say 28 moving up to 30 in Hg). Converting that to the vertical pressure of H2O/Water is 28 in H20. Fish routinely move up and down in the water column more than 30 inches, right?. Therefore, typical changes in air pressure would be unnoticeable to them.

When a storm is moving in the pressure will drop (low pressure) good for fishing. Once the storm is over, typically you get blue bird skies, no wind and high pressure (not good for fishing). Consistent pressure or falling pressure is the best for fishing. Unfortunately, unless you are fishing in the winter, the prettier days are going to be tougher fishing (sunshine and no wind)

Жыл бұрын

Your weather app will tell you what the pressure is. The good ones will tell you if it’s going up or down. Also, if it just rained the day before and you are out there without a cloud in the sky and no wind, most likely high pressure.

I've always been amused by the discussions of barometric pressure affecting fish. The normal barometric pressure this fellow states as 29.92 is correct, and the scale of the pressure measurement in this case is "inches of water". There are other ways to show pressure like psi (pounds per square inch) or kilopascals, there are a variety, just like there are different ways to show linear measurements like inches, or feet, meters etc. But in this case showing the barometric pressure in inches of water is useful. When he says there is a "weight" due to barometric pressure, what he means is the weight of all the air above us pushes down on the surface of the water which is also correct. But if you're willing to believe that this effect is real (and yes it really is, I assure you) then you must also acknowledge that the fish also feels the weight of water above it as well, so that in total it feels the weight of the air AND the weight of the water. Barometric pressure changes due to fluctuations in air density (as it changes temperature) because its a gas. Water, as a liquid, not so much. So..what would you rather carry...a bucket of water or a bucket of air? Air is way, way, way lighter than water which is very believable (if not obvious). Now, barometric pressure normally ranges from about 29.6" of water to 30.2" of water. So if charlie the fish is swimming in fifteen feet of water and the barometric pressure rises from 29.9 to 30.2 he "feels" an increase in pressure of 0.3" ....a third of an inch. So if his air bladder suddenly feels funny he can swim one third of an inch shallower in the water to feel better again. Since water is so much heavier than air a very small change in depth in the water can mitigate any relatively slight change in air (barometric) pressure. And this is why I have always believed that barometric pressure changes having an affect on fish is utter horseshit. And to say that a rise in air pressure (a maximum of a third of an inch) will drive the fish to the bottom of the lake is ludicrous at best.

Is there a good pressure app you would recommend?

Not sure. I’m only familiar with freshwater fish and how they react

In my experience fish who regulates their swim bladder via the bloodstream (perch, bass, walleye) often reacts to SUDDEN the low pressure by going deeper and SUDDEN higher pressure by going up in the water column. This is because they use more time to adjust to the new pressure, because they have to use their bloodstream to regulate the swim bladder rather than "burping" like a trout can... Im by no means an expert and some fish are of course located at different depths at all times, thus the fish will have to regulate the pressure drop/increase by going ether up or down to where other fish usually stay.

I mainly only know about bass and crappie because that is what I fish for. Regardless of size it affects them very similarly. Smaller bass/fish are typically more aggressive though and are easier to get to bite.

29.92 is in what unit? kPa? hPa?

Studies are showing more and more that the turn on before a front might be more due to lighting than pressure.

Interesting. I will have to look into that

The fish sense the pressure even underwater , and will hunt for food before the storm hits and the water gets rough,

I always wondered how the fish I stick cold steal in their jaw feels

No feeling in their mouth. Just their tongue… don’t stick them there or they might not make it.

Good info HOWEVER , there is some important info missing . When talking about presure dropping you perhaps left out the fact that falling pressure is important if it drops at least .02 or more in an hours time . This would be a substantial drop and even while still being in the high pressure range may very well affect the bite. I fish only frogs all season and there dosent seem to be a great difference in the fishing activity due to presure. Let me explain most generally I'm fishing 0 to 4' of water the bass are still laying on the bank ,rocks and logs in 6" to 12" of water reguardless of the pressure and still are catachable all day long. The amount of movement that a fish has to move to compensate for a small pressure movement is very slight. Pressure alone is not enough of a factor without adding light, wind and moon positions. Please consider adding this to your future videos. In truth pressure is not as much of a factor as oppose to time actually spent on the water. I would not want someone to think that looking at the barometric pressure to decide whether they should go fishing. Bass are reactionary feeders more so than specific feeding time regulated feeders. I have yet to experience a high pressure ( bluebird ) day in the middle of the afternoon that i could not get a topwater frog bite.🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🇺🇲🇺🇲

Correct and I say this doesn’t mean you can’t catch fish on these days. You are right, I could have explained several more factors that play into this. Like your example with frog baits, they are a finesse reaction bait that you typically only fish in higher pressure (no wind, sunny) and will never have much effect on catching. Also, Pressure is more for cold water conditions as I mentioned in the video. Also, this applies more to open water where fish are able to move up and down in the water column. As mentioned, there are no rules in fishing, just things to be aware of. Thanks for sharing your feedback.

Low pressure expands the air bladder, therefore more buoyant and near top. High pressure shrinks air bladder, less buoyant, fish hang lower. Like my eyes..all messed up and both are banded by a silicone belt due to retina disease. When pressure drops, eyes swell internally, pain. High P, eyes shrink internally. less pain. I am a human barometer, as my eye bulbs cant change shape to accommodate the P changes. Below 30.00 hurts me. Im about immune to it now, but it's 365/24/7. Same concept when joints ache with the weather. Synovial fluid pressure changes. Low (overcast and rainy) hurts, high (clear blue skies) doesn't . Grandmaw was right lol

Why would fish go to the bottom on high pressure days? That would cause them to increase pressure on themselves even more.

Very true

Just the opposite with trout.

sense water is heavy pressure you would think the fish would go to shallow water where's there's less pressure idk

I don't get this reasoning. The observations on fish behaviour might be correct, but not for this reason. The deeper you go, the bigger the water pressure. It's a matter of gravity - you can't avoid pressure by going deeper... in the same way that the atmosphere is less dense higher up, because there's less air above creating pressure. If the water pressure in general is increased through higher atmospheric pressure, logic says the fish would instead rise in the water to find their ideal water pressure level?

I agree with you 100%. The fish probably go deep during high pressure NOT BECAUSE OF THE PRESSURE BUT BECAUSE OF LIGHT PENETRATION. High pressure usually indicates clear sunny skies. Fish donot like light, so they go deeper where the light can not penetrate. A few feet of water depth change overshadows any barometric pressure change.

So, basically, you attribute fish activity and feeding habits based on how weather affects them but air pressure is not one of them. Air pressure can determine winds, clouds, etc but fish can not feel that. They are in a liquid that can not be compressed. Light levels affect them more and how they use light to advantages for feeding. A fish would feel many times greater pressure by dropping just THREE feet in the water column than the highest recorded air pressure on the planet at 15.70 psi. You gain .445 for each foot down. They are just used to dealing with living in a much higher pressure environment than the air.

29.92 is standard at sea level. You lose 1 inch per 1,000 ft, so standard at 1,000 ft elevation is 30.92 etc…

It’s still the standard. The pressure is just different depending on your location. The point is high and low pressure changes affect fishing.

If pressure is higher....going deeper would make it even higher....

That pressure is consistent always is my guess. This is extra atmospheric weight added to the earth/fish. But to be fair, your point does make a lot of sense. I don’t know why they sink, but they do in my experience

It would be more believable if you cited some studies, otherwise you're just repeating theories that are not neccessarily fact. I've read studies that say pressure does not affect bass in that way. If pressure is to high for their comfort, they can rise up in the water column to compensate. It likely has more to do with the effect on invertebrates that don't have air bladders and cannot adjust to pressure. So they get pushed to the bottom and minnows follow, which the bass follow. High pressure brings bright sun so bass retreat to cover due to the light change, not the pressure change. As pressure drops, invertebrates float up and light level drops which kicks the feeding cycles into gear. That's from studies I've read.
