Is Dag Gum English?

Southern English but in New York? I don't understand  lol

[fishizzle]

Funny, thanks

I'm gonna try to translate the question

I didn't see anything about artificial on here but during early spring do you think this (spring cold rain) is a turnoff to bass?

Yeah I can't get it!

I know what the problem with the question is but,  we have been through this before.  He's fortunate that Long Mike didn't see it.   It's like beating a dead horse.

TRANSLATE..

I did see an article on here about This, But do you think that rain in the early spring is a turn off for bass?

My personal opinion is No..........

Cold rain--BAD, warm rain--GOOD

I use to live in Tennessee.  One of those southern terms that made me laugh and had to bring up north.

It seems to really depends.  If it is a cold rain then yes it shuts the bite down.  But a nice warm tropical system can have the opposite effect.

[Bassin_Fin@tic]

Lets hear it for the translators!!!

It was summer but I have fished during a rain storm and absolutely tore them up. As soon as the rain stopped the bite stopped. Also this was on a very clear lake.

I personally love fishing in a nice warm Spring rain (and Summer rains). Some of the best fishin' I've ever done has been in the rain.

PS:  GREAT AVATAR Americangirl!!!

I been trying to figure the fronts out for a while now. I have had a bass feeding frenzy happen hours before the front comes in, during the front while its raining, during the pouring rain while it lets up a tad and after the front has left. So what triggers this frenzy to happen since it can happen at anytime?

During the frenzy we had doubles for 15 minutes, I caught 18 bass another time in 3 hours plus other fish too. I have also caught some large pink colored sunfish but its mainly bass after bass no matter what lure i use. It doesn't happen all the time too.

My older brother before he passed away would always tell me you have to stay going and all of a sudden they just turn on. I never knew what he ment until it finally happened and the bass bug bit me. No wonder why he always fished in the rain. I just can't seem to nail it down when and how it happens. I know if the PH gets too high they shut down.

I'm sure the ones who have experienced this feeding frenzy will agree but not many fisherman have seen this happen.

Towards the end of the rain the PH is much higher so they shut down. The rain has stirred everything up by the time its over. The shut down of the bite can last for days after the rain too until the run off calms down and the PH drops back to normal again.

Remember i'm fishing from shore and its totally different when your in a boat. I'm fishing small places were no boats are allowed. To pull out many numbers of bass in a small place is just awesome. I have even caught larger smallies too at this time were no smallies are ever caught. The large pink sunfish just kill me i never seen them before.

So what can it be that causes this to happen?

Is it the moon phase timed during the front?

I spent one summer trying to figure this out and was soaked to the bone ever rain storm too.

This is a good observation. Do you think maybe a changing barometric pressure could have a similar effect? My new Humminbird unit can monitor ATM pressure. Ill start watching it when the bite picks up under frontal conditions.
