AlTheFisherman313 Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 We had a heavy t-storm last night at about 7pm, we are supposed to have another at 10 am i am a big solunar guy and this morning should be epic fishing, but with the storms am I potentially looking at a bad time? I planned on going first light for a couple hours, probably gonna throw a plopper or popper, maybe a buzzbait, but I am worried about locating fish in the between storm conditions! Any input? I also realize pre storm fishing can be great, I’m just not sure how to fish series of storms. Usually I wait a couple days for the water to clear, but we have a full moon people haha!! Quote
Super User Scott F Posted July 16, 2019 Super User Posted July 16, 2019 As far as I’m concerned, the solunar tables are based on the same science as your horoscope. Go fishing when you can. Don’t stay out when lightning is present. 2 1 Quote
Super User Koz Posted July 16, 2019 Super User Posted July 16, 2019 Thunderstorms are a way of life nearly every summer day in the south. If I didn't fish between storms my fishing time would be cut in half. FWIW, I have the Weather Channel app on my phone and turn on lightning alerts so I get a warning every time lightning strikes within 6 or 7 miles. That's when it's time to pack up and leave. 1 Quote

Super User N Florida Mike Posted July 17, 2019 Super User Posted July 17, 2019 Dont over think it. Just go. You definitely won’t catch any if you stay home. If you live somewhere like where I do ( high 90s this week ) The morning after a nice rain is usually a good time to fish in the summer. Quote
AlTheFisherman313 Posted July 17, 2019 Author Posted July 17, 2019 I went out yesterday for 2 hours and hooked 1 fish didn’t land it! Going out again today lol! I don’t like being skunked, gotta get the skunk stench off my equipment. Quote
