captpierre Posted July 16, 2014 Report Posted July 16, 2014 What about wind direction. I find an east wind is often a bust. But an east wind usually brings rain and low pressure
bushart Posted July 16, 2014 Report Posted July 16, 2014 I know lots of good anglers that'll tell ya---the early parts of that east wind catches good fish
lew Posted July 16, 2014 Report Posted July 16, 2014 What about wind direction. I find an east wind is often a bust. But an east wind usually brings rain and low pressure I've actually had some good luck with an east wind and all 3 of those fish I posted about earlier in this thread came with wind from the east.
BassHunterOttawa Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Posted July 16, 2014 Does this app run 24/7 on my phone? just curious because my battery drains pretty quickly these days.. No, the app doesn't run constantly. It runs a service in the background that runs for about a tenth of a second to read/record the pressure, and notify you if needed.
BassHunterOttawa Posted July 17, 2014 Author Report Posted July 17, 2014 I've actually had some good luck with an east wind and all 3 of those fish I posted about earlier in this thread came with wind from the east. I've been told the old adage that wind from the West, catches the Best, wind from the East catches the Least. More proof that fishing is always worth it Maybe the wind, barometer and moon phases all have an effect and sometimes one can overrule the others? It's interesting stuff
Terry Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 Maybe the wind, barometer and moon phases all really do make a difference and I do check them just before or at the start of a storm can be the best fishing ever but I work and have a life so I can not pick and choose to go fishing when all the signs add up..so I go when I can go and I check on when the best fishing is and if there is a best time during the time I am on the water I try to be in the best spot in the area I am fishing at that time but other then that I just fish when I can
Pikeslayer Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 Enjoying the thread but want to put some theories to the test. So here's the challenge: Heading to the home lake tomorrow (Thursday) and will be available to fish from 5:00 Thursday pm through Sunday 9:00 am. Prognostications based on BP, moon phase or solnar tables would be appreciated. I will do my best to fish these times (based on consensus) and report back accordingly. Winner gets bragging rights
BassHunterOttawa Posted July 17, 2014 Author Report Posted July 17, 2014 Lol, great plan - Moon phase can be planned ahead, I'll look into that later today. BP has to be taken real-time because you can't predict that in advance for a weekend. Same with wind.
manjo39 Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 I go fishing based on my wife's menstrual cycle. The 1 week before menstration is the best time to go fishing.

BP has to be taken real-time because you can't predict that in advance for a weekend. Same with wind.Alrighty then, look forward to your predictions/suggestions I don't have equip for BP though. Not that it should matter but I will be fishing a medium sized inland lake in zone 15.
Pikeslayer Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 I go fishing based on my wife's menstrual cycle. The 1 week before menstration is the best time to go fishing.With apologies to the ladies here, that's funny How are you gonna manage "THE CHANGE" ???
captpierre Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 I go fishing based on my wife's menstrual cycle. The 1 week before menstration is the best time to go fishing. HaHa! My woman is passed that. Way more flexibility. Even for that other activiity
grimsbylander Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 I go fishing based on my wife's menstrual cycle. The 1 week before menstration is the best time to go fishing. In-Fisherman taught F+L+P... never thought of trying P+M+S
Fisherpete Posted July 17, 2014 Report Posted July 17, 2014 Now even my wife thought that was funny lmao
mike rousseau Posted July 18, 2014 Report Posted July 18, 2014 What about wind direction. I find an east wind is often a bust. But an east wind usually brings rain and low pressure I love an east wind.... Only wind I hate is north cause there's usually a temp drop with it
BassHunterOttawa Posted July 18, 2014 Author Report Posted July 18, 2014 I go fishing based on my wife's menstrual cycle. The 1 week before menstration is the best time to go fishing. THat was absolutely brilliant. Best laugh i've had in a while, and one of the most logical fisihing guidelines. Alrighty then, look forward to your predictions/suggestions I don't have equip for BP though. Not that it should matter but I will be fishing a medium sized inland lake in zone 15. Looks like someone beat me to it. Good luck and let us know how it pans out!
BassHunterOttawa Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Posted August 7, 2014 Ontario Out of Doors just reviewed this!!http://www.oodmag.com/guns-and-gear/fishing-barometer-app-tested-approved/My 15 minutes have sort of arrived!
AKRISONER Posted August 7, 2014 Report Posted August 7, 2014 any word on this being available on the apple store?
BassHunterOttawa Posted August 7, 2014 Author Report Posted August 7, 2014 As soon as Apple makes an iPhone that has a barometer in it (iPhone 6 is rumoured), I'll port it over.
AKRISONER Posted September 9, 2014 Report Posted September 9, 2014 Just announced the new iphone 6 will have a baramoter...time to start developing!
