Rain causes runoff to enter lakes, causing the water to become murky, and reduces visibility.

when this happens, they rely on their noses and lateral lines to find their food.. but can still see things up close.

..Making an inflated worm especially delicious to them. PB will still work, because of the scent. The colors become a little less important, but still relevant..

Not really much of a change, although after the rain, they may prowl the surface for drowning insects.

I hear fish don't bite when they are wet.
