We actually just had a topic on it.
High is usually really sunny and no clouds. Low is pretty much a storm or cloudy.Of course there is alot in between. Plus altitude also has a effect on barometric pressure. http://www.bassfishin.com/bassfishin...ad.php?t=25154 |

As a general guideline, think of 30 inHg (1016 millibar) as being a normal level. World records vary from a high pressure of 32.0 inHg in Siberia to 25.7 inHg during a typhoon (both readings are off the scale of most barometers). For the US, extreme levels can be considered as 30.5 inHg and 28.5 inHg. When it comes to fishing, a change of just +/- 0.02 inHg from normal is enough to effect their feeding habits.
It is important, however, to note that the effects of barometric pressure is greater in fresh and shallow waters, than it is in deeper waters. This is probably due to the fact that the pressure of water is so much greater in deeper waters making the air pressure above it no longer having any significance. Borrowed from another fishing site Hope it helps |
