WMBF News reports that MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WMBF) -Want to catch more fish?
A lot affects fishing—like bait choice—but today we’re focusing on three weather factors: wind, water temperature, and air pressure.
Air pressure matters because fish act like natural barometers thanks to their swim bladder—a gas-filled organ that helps with buoyancy.
When pressure drops, the swim bladder expands, which can cause discomfort and often triggers more aggressive feeding.
When pressure is high, the swim bladder contracts, and fish can become more sluggish and less interested in eating.
In general, falling pressure is best.
