Man post-surgery drugs make you write some crazy things.    :-[  

Ie:

Here is where my opion gets really different from most people here in the forum. I think that the air after the front passes, although more dense is actually lighter. Now don't go thinking I'm crazy yet, here me out. When a front comes in the air is not as dense, but it is filled with moisture/humidity. After the front passes through the air looses the majoirty of the humidty in the air. Water weighs more than air hence my theory on the air being heavier before the front passes. This would also explain how a basses swim bladder could become extended after a frontal passing. If the air were heavier, would the swim bladder not become compressed instead of extended?

Just ignore that portion. Delerium do to a drug induced haze is great untill you actually get to see the after effect once it is over. Matt, you could have brought the one back that I wrote much more recently. I was comptley sober. There was not any over thought hallucinations.

Here is another one. I promise that I was sober when I wrote this particular post. The info here is more detailed, and not half witted. I still can't believe that Matt found the other one.

Here is a link if you are interested in reading it.

Have heard that bass will move to deeper water in high pressure. My question is at what reading do they begin to move?

I hope that an attempt to be helpful is not misconstrued as an attempt to be contradictory.

In any case, I see three words in that question that I believe are debatable to say the least.

Namely: "deeper", "pressure" and "reading". Actually, water temperature is usually responsible

for negative bites, rather than barometric pressure. While there may be a specific trigger point,

it cannot be measured numerically. Bass are usually turned OFF and turned ON by the "trend"

of water temperature rather than a specific number. This number of course will vary with the seasons.

The tough bite that characterizes a cold front is due to the cold air accompanied by brisk wind,

which mixes the cold air into the water. Rising barometric pressure is coincidental to a tough bite

but not causal. The water temperature in streams in much less affected by a cold front because

water current exerts a greater influence on water temperature than air current.

     Studies conducted about 25 years ago have shown that during a cold front, bass do not

move horizontally into deeper water, but move vertically to the bottom within the same water column.

Underwater observation has revealed that largemouth bass during a cold front move to the bottom

of the heaviest available cover with their noses literally pointed downward and their tails tilted upward.

On balance, it takes 2 to 3 days for the ill effects of a cold front to subside. When the thermal cycle

is reversed by a warm front, bass begin to loft progressively higher in the water column (day-by-day).

In textbook fashion, they would move first to the middle of the weedbed, then toward the top

of weedbed and ultimately above the weedbed...These are the days that we never forget

How to handle a high front: go fishing and ignore it

How to handle a low front: go fishing and ignore it

How to handle wind: get drift socks, go fishing and ignore it

how to handle all the excuses you can think of for not catching: go fishing and forget them, because they are nothing more than excuses.

You can't catch when you are not fishing - it's that simple. This bass fishing thingy is just not all that complicated. Sometimes they just aren't going to bite, but until one comes up and talks to us, all this guess work is just so much superflous gibberish.

I hope no one takes offense at this but you are putting far to much emphasis on total unknown stuff. A biologist's answer to all of this theory: "well er, hmmm; I'll get back to you on that.
