I was out at Crawling Valley today fishing the same place with similar lures I had last week. The only difference was today I had zero luck at all.
Made me start to think. The lake is about 18 km long and I can reach .0001% of it.
I came to the conclusion that I need to go back to school to help improve my chances. I want to learn what are the key components that lead to a good day fishing.
If I were to guess the two most influencing factors, I would think water temp and atmospheric pressure would be serious players. At least they would affect at what depth you may find them.
I know there are loads of other factors like moon phase, time of day, even the wind affecting the chop on the water that can all add up to a great day fishing. I always heard of you aren't enjoying the weather the fishing should be good.
I am curious if many people take much of this into consideration when heading out. I assume most people are like me and if you have the time you will give it a go, no matter the weather.
I guess those with boats and depth finders have it a little better since they know the temp and depths but us who are stuck on the shores may just need a little more than luck on our side.
Curious to hear your thoughts.
