Default Quick Question on Barometric pressure

I'm confused.... is high a cold front, or is that low pressure?

High is the bluebird skies and north winds following a front. When a front approaches, the pressure drops, which causes the fish to feed. Once the front passes and the low pressure is replaced with high pressure the fish turn off.

High pressure is usually accompanied by clear skies, but low pressure is accompanied with clouds and usually rain or storms.

And feeding fish

Reb is right on, here's a link for a detailed (but a tad boring) explanation.

Scroll down about halfway for a neat chart to make it easier to understand.
