I personally think it's a myth, but some believe in it strongly.

Barometric pressure measures the weight of the atmosphere per square inch.

It's supposed to affect a bass's swim bladder, which would in turn affect should affect eating patterns.

When the pressure decreases the bite is supposed to heat up and when it increases the bite is supposed to slow down.

This could help you understand a little more as I am not an expert on the subject.

It's another one of the myths that fishermen use for an excuse when they don't catch bass with their favorite presentations and won't try any other presentations.

The same goes for wind, cold fronts, time of day, water temp, etc.

I wouldn't go as far as to say it's a myth I believe it does effect there feeding pattern but, to what extent I dont know. sometimes I think there are other factors that might overpower barometric pressure for example post spawn when there really starving i think there gonna be feeding no matter what. It may affect them slightly but when there hungry enough there gonna eat. Its just another variable in the 10000000000000 variables of fishing and thats what gets us coming back for more.  :-/ :-? > :( : :)

I am certainly not an expert on this matter, but I have made some general observations from fishing experiences. I am like the in fisherman mantra, a multi-species angler. Musky fisherman from experience have learned nothing promotes active feeding fish like a dropping barometer. Forget all else but get on the water as the approaching storm is coming because it will promote a feeding window. When you can combine other ideal circumstances with a falling barometer you can increase your chances to catch more & bigger fish. I would rather fish low pressure than high pressure any day of the week for bass as well as other game fish species.

In Florida some of my best fishing days come as hurricanes approch the area that's when the barometer gets low.  Holds true even more so in saltwater, storms bring fish in.
