[QUOTE="raider, post: 239062, member: 353"] this was from bout 2004 thru 2014... the weather patterns have changed a lot... it used to b common to see high steady pressure for a week at a time, then have a low come through and have a good 3-4 day soaker, then clear up again... now it seems the lows just line up and we get 1 after another all summer, and sometimes in the winter... i ran fishing pontoons for the last few years on devils and sak... never had a problem with the wind... the last year and a half that changed, and i went to a fiberglass boat because of it... i loved the toons for fishing, but just wasn't willing to give up all the windy days that seem to b developing with the current patterns... maybe it's just me, but it sure seems like the patterns have changed over the past few years... [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] watch the wind direction - westerly winds generally mean high pressure - easterly generally low... most weather apps will have the barometric pressure at the time, and also show which way it's headed... wind from the west - fishing the best wind from the east - fishing the least a falling barometer is usually really good as well, but you have to pay attention if in a boat as things can get pretty sketch in a hurry... a buddy told me about a time he had his kids out on a really hot walleye bite on sak... he was running the boat from the bow, and there was a storm rolling in - the fishing just kept getting better and better... he went to the back to net a fish and saw his daughters ponytail standing straight up from the static electricity in the air... they got off the lake asap, and it stormed shortly after... also, if you start getting shocked from your graphite rod, it's time to get off the water... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPRUXALIcuQ [/QUOTE]
