[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 33278, member: 217"] Well said Sub_ELect, pressure also affects the fish in different depths as well as wind direction even when on the ice. The guides use the pressure as well; they adjust the depth of locating fish in reference to the pressure. Sunny, cloudy, rainy, or bitter cold it doesn’t matter if the pressure is right. The best is steady pressure over any duration of time and a good breeze from the northwest. Why is fishing better when the wind is coming from the northwest? The answer being band of low pressure which makes the fish more active during a transition of steady pressure to high pressure is key to targeting in what depth to check for active fish. The moon phases doesn’t only effect during dark hours but also during the day light hours of the duration of that day. Like I said before, the guides use pressure reading as well to find active fish in what depth of water. I have never really found it beneficial during open water season because I fish [COLOR=#ff8c00]Devils Lake[/COLOR]. [/QUOTE]
