| Chuck, interesting comment in another thread about an exact barometer reading. After seeing Heiting's new video and planning on getting one myself, I was left with the impression that a change is all thats needed to go back to a fish with, not so much what the actual pressure is. Can you fill us in on the barometer reading you have found to be effective? Thx much.[:)] |

| Moved the question over to the Pro's Perspective board to get the response you were after, and keep the direct questions to the MuskieFIRST Pros on this board. Great question, I looked into Barometric readings over a 6 year period. I found trend and change in trend to be a factor. |

| I carry a barometer in the boat. I have noticed that it moves a LOT on most days, even when the weather itself doesn't seem to be changing. I haven't been able to correlate any induced acitivty from these changes, but I believe the fish "sense" these changes as they happen and may affect how they respond, even if the change hasn't registered much on the barometer. I still prefer "active" changes in the weather, but have caught most of my largest muskies on hot, flat days!

| Hey Gregg, Water temp and weather conds(this includes barometer reading) will dictate How, What and Where I'm going to fish/guide. I've kept extensive logs thru the years and what I've noticed on most of my great days (very active fish) is the barometer has 98% of the time been between 29.57 and 29.94, as to why this has happend all I can do is guess that this reading is where the barometric comfort level is for the muskies. Another plus added to that would be a low preasure system centered right over the top of the northwood's, if I see this I'm going fishing. Hope this helps my friend. |

| Sure does, thank you. What brand/type of barometer do you carry in the boat? I would like to purchase one somewhere. Any tips for a good one? Thx much. |
