Post cold front conditions for stripers

[schoolie monster]

That is interesting Scotch, I'd never heard the physical explanation to why fish are affected by the change in pressure. That makes sense though.

I'd had someone I was talking to about this suggest that a lake or river is a closed environment and would be more affected by the cold front. But its not the temp, its the barom pressure... so I see no reason that fish in 5 to 15 feet of water would not be affected.

Anyway, that front came thru on wed night, (I mistakenly typed thursday) and the temp dropped over 30 degrees and stayed for a few days, so it was a pretty significant event.

I know that alot of things can affect the fishing, especially short term. Fish move around alot, etc etc. But the fishing was slow, and the fish we found were not aggressive. Just wondered if others thought that was a factor.

Thanks for everyone's input.
