Accuweather Fishing Forecast

[buckboardjr]

Just wondering what guys think of Accuweather's Fishing forecast. Poor, fair, good, excellent.

Knowing the guy that runs that place, probably not very good.

Their hourly weather forecast is usually pretty spot on. As far as fishing, I look for barometer falling or rising, and below 29.90. And definitely days without any variation of an east wind.

I usually use itellicast and fishweather.

 

Fish weather has never been wrong but only forecast a few days ahead. It also has live wind data.

Being a mailman I watch it every day and it has been the most reliable source I use Except for the wind forecast on the lakes which is very important to us as fishermen so keep that in mind

For the lake forecast I used to use weather underground however im starting to like NOAA better, specially when it comes to the wave forecast. There were a few day's when underground would say 3-5 footers for my area so I wouldn't fish, then I'd drive by the lake later in the day and it would be flat calm.

Thanks for the responses fellas. I was most interested in the fishing forecast where they rate it as Poor, Fair, Excellent and weather you find it to be correct. Like: Yep we hammered them today and the report said Excellent. Or Nope, Hammered them today even though it said Poor!

Bass Pro carries a fishing Barometer that is round with a rubberized, black housing around it.  Ebay also carries them and they work very well.  Just do some research how to use the readings and watch it for a few days leading up to your next outing.  If it isn't within the 29.7 to 30.4 range then I have found it is better to stay home and work on projects unless your goal is to just get the line wet.

Or an east wind

[greenhornet73]

Haha yes that too

Again Thanks fellas!

I'd rate it as poor. Don't they just go by nice weather = good day to fish and rainy = poor fishing? I was looking at it last summer and that's all I really noticed
