Good point, Vince. I have noticed barometric pressure changes on larger rivers that have deep holes and slots. Steelhead have to adjust to these pressure changes. An angler can often detect a steelhead's adjustment by observing boils on the surface. In my experience these boils, although visually pleasing to the angler, usually shut down the bite. I read this in a steelhead book that was written by a famous devoted angler from the Pacific Northwest. Sadly, I cannot recall the low and high pressure changes and their exact subsequent effect on steelhead behavior. The other thoughts that have been mentioned throughout this posting are all observations that I have witnessed as well; I certainly agree.
