I went out today in PA in a light rain after a heavy storm had moved through over night.  Air temps dropped about 10 degrees. Stayed cloudy after the rain quit. 

 

Anyway, I found a bunch of fish during the rain on a grass line.  Caught 3 in a row and the 4th one broke me off.  This was on highly pressured public water.  Side note, don't be lazy like me and neglect to re-tie.  When the rain quit the bite slowed down, and I had to adjust, but I continued to catch fish. 

 

My 2 cents... Get some decent rain gear and stay away from lightning.

I have fished in lightning 3 times this week. There is lightning almost every single day when it’s hot so if you don’t venture out in lightning you might as well take up an indoor hobby. I was several miles from the ramp each time the storm came, so running back to the truck seemed like the worst idea each time. I just find a bridge, tie off the boat, and get out. Keep everything metal away from you and wait it out. I just noticed a lot of people replying to run away, which is not always the best idea
