most people consider 30.30 high, ive done my best at around 29.82 to 29.90

29.92 at sea level is considered normal pressure - not high or low.

As altitude increases normal pressure decreases. So Leanin post does his best around normal pressure.

The pressure tomorrow afternoon and evening will be down in the 29.92-.94 range... Happy fishing

19 foot was the ticket bait had to all but drag bottom to 6"s up.

01/05/2012 Duck creek in garland from 12:00 am to 2:00 p.m 0 fish caught .

Was 30.30 at La Mancha right at sun up dont know if it changed if it dropped but there was about 8 of us out there and the action never slowed significantly all day. Several dinks were caught but alot of nice ones as well. 6 of us while i was there limited out by 2pm.

Pressures down to 29.91" now and falling rapidly... Curious to see how everyone is doing today, especially this evening...

Canoe trip on a creek in LL today 12-2:30, one cappie caught on a purple jig after about an hour of fishing (and 1.5 hours of battling wind paddling). A guy that got to the wind sheltered spot before us caught 5. Fish were within a foot or two of the bottom in the deeper holes and structure. (bank fishermen coming up empty). Water temp 49-52 degrees. Pressure ~29.0

I saw some caught out at LL this afternoon. I cm on my way back out to try under the lights. Never night fished this time of year.

Unsure what use your collecting of Texas fish caught vs your local pressure data will be....the pressure changes in one part of the state don't necessarily track the pressure changes in other parts of the state.

Fronts stall, move forward, move backward and that drastically affects the barameter. If you had the GPS location and exact time of reports, you could look up the pressures, but your local gauge will not accurately show those same pressures or even the direction or trends of the pressure changes where the fish are actually being caught.

sorry..

I dont think thats what he is doing. I dont think he is trying to track the weather or barometer, I think he is just trying to track at what barometric pressures people are or arent catching fish. location doesnt matter,, just what the pressure was at the time they were fishing and how many if any caught.

So which is better 29 to 30 rising or lowering? Don't have a clue on this just go when I get a chance to and that aint near enough. Haven't even bought the license yet have not been fishning in 6 months. Would love to know this kind of stuff.

Location (for the fish)means everything. They don't know or care what the pressure gauge is reading at the poster's home weather station. Fish can only sense or care what the barometric pressure is at their lake location. The readings across an area the size of Texas will often vary greatly and can even move in opposite directions. Some fronts never reach parts of the state, while they create huge barametric changes in other parts of the state.

Wundergound weather input you nearest town and set date. It gives a 24 hr look at past temp/wind direction/wind speed and changes in speed/baro pressure----I allways compare how the day before of fish caught and times. http://www.wunderground.com/history/airp...statename=Texas
