I've heard all sorts of tricks and techniques to stimulate feeding responses in Alterna. But has anyone ever tried wind?
Several Alterna veterans have observed that Gray-bands are more active on windy nights. Could using a fan to simulate wind would have an impact on feeding response?
Sleep deprivation sometimes spurs good ideas, and sometimes just loopy ones. I wonder what category this falls under?
I think the wind you want is more related to high and low pressure systems moving thru the area. Why don't you try to feed
when a low pressure system moves thru.

I had 3 babies that would not even take scented pinks, suddenly take live unscented pinks on the night of a storm. I have tried it since then and not had any definitive results.
So we not only chase storm fronts while trying to collect / observe, but have to wait on them to come to us to feed?
Good to know
