I enjoyed my first 28 years in FL, Bquick. Left a few old(now) wives there, too.    :woot:

And, as you say, these things have been observed by many, back when we lived closer to the earth.    ;)2

We are in the process of getting ourselves back to the old ways.  Going to be selling the house this year and finding a small bit of land to build a simpler life on.  More basic and self sufficient.  It's going to be a good year my friend!

I think first the fish don't bite, then the cows lay down.

I have an explanation for that...  When the fish ain'ta bitin the folks get a might bit edgy.  Seems ta me I recalls the MacDoogle boys didn't take a'likin to gettin skunked on the lake so theys always get more drunk the less fishes theys a caught.  Well, one things leads in another an sure as heck they'd always get good and mighty drunk enough to head out tippin' cows all night long.  Sure as heck them cows be laying down when the fishes ain'ta bitin!

Beverage on the monitor as well as a few tears.  Simple logic.      :roflmao:

Definitely true.  They can feel the front coming in and this will affect the fishing.  Next time you go fishing on open water and on the way to the lake, you see most of the cows are laying down, watch what the panfish are doing at the dock.  They are usually down near the bottom and very sluggish.

It's consistent sign here in Nebraska as well.  It doesn't stop me from fishing, though. I want to be on the water or ice when they decide to get up

I am heading out fishing tomorrow. I will call a few farmers to see what the cows are doing if they are down or up I will let you know how the fishing was
Don't try to change me, my wife said that's her job.

My wife went and had her knee replaced. Now I have to get some other way to know when a front is coming in. She was very reliable. It hurt all the time so I fished all the time....hunts2long
