Interesting thread, I also seem to always catch more fish as a front comes in, and that seems to carry until the front starts moving on, then nothing. I use to keep a journal as well. I should start one again.

I always believed in barametric pressure playin' a large part in my success!  I have found that if the weather is stable for three or more days the bite is moderate to good, but as soon as a thunder head is rollin in, and a pressure drop begins the fish go into lunch mode and awesome fishing begins! 

This could be 20 minutes or even a full day of hot action depending on season.

After the rain is gone and the storm leaves, the pressure climbs the fish get "lockjaw" or inactive. 

I have found that these changes in barometric pressure effect fish more in the summer and fall then winter and spring.
