If ya get lots of rain and it raises the level of water at your pond, lake, river, etc. try the new shallows.
Many times when our pond or lake really goes up in water levels, the fish look for new food sources , and often its in a previous grassy area that was dry until the rains |

;D
when I was fishing in Japan a coule times, I went after a typhoon went by. The water levels are highly rasied and the weeds and all that crap that snags ur baits scattered so i don't think it's all that good. But like u said, "Do it anywayz" (Yea~h!)

Fishing after it was just as good if not better as fish before it came through. But we only got like an inch of rain here (just like our average everyday thunderstorm).

low pressure systems
I've found that fishing before any low pressure system (tropical system, cold front, etc.) is usually good. Most of my experience is in saltwater, but I've found the same to be true during the few bass trips i've been on. Arlene, Cindy, and Dennis all turned the bass on to slam topwaters aggressively. As tropical storm Arlene approach the coast (I am about 80 miles from the coast), the pressure dropped drastically and bait fish were jumping out of the water everywhere and big bass were feeding on flats and out over the deep holes.
However, I've heard of amazing fishing trips after hurricanes. My dad had the pleasure of fishing at a barrier Island off the coast of MS after hurricane Camille in 1969. They caught hundreds of nice speckled trout and red fish that day, and had to stop because they literally filled the boat. I think that can be attributed to the fact that the storm pushed high salinity water into the area. |
