What's up with the barometer? Conditions that drop barometer readings below 29.7 inches of mercury usually mean bad fishing. 29.7 - 29.8 make for good fishing 30.4 - 31.2 are also good. Any thing above that, drops to the bad zone. It is said that the best fishing and hunting can be found with readings between 29.8 and 30.4 inches of mercury. Check the Ely and Boundary Waters barometer or Make your own The charm of fishing is that it is the persuit of what is elusive but unobtainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. -John Buchan
