Trout fishing after cold fronts

I'm fairly new to speck fishing. I was wondering if its worth trying to go this weekend after the front passes?

I can tell you without a doubt that you won't catch any fish what so ever
If you don't go.
If you don't go.

Hear stories for and against this but I mostly hear favorable stories for fishing after(or even just before) fronts.
The theory is that fish sense the barometric pressure change coming and they gorge themselves before so they don't go hungry if the baitfish get swept away. And after the ones that didn't gorge, are so hungry that they eat anything in the water.

Sat looks like it will be okay. A little north wind to keep the gnats off. I'd go.

All fish, not just trout, bite better before a front. Something I've been told since I was little, and has never let me down.

Go wet a line and find out for yourself. Even if you don't catch anything you were fishing. I have a newborn at home and would kill to go fishing this weekend and catch nothing. Do it!
In all seriousness, I find that before the front is better, but like others have said, if you can get out there before the wind picks up you should have a good chance at catching fish provided you know the area you are fishing. Once the wind is blowing, you may have a hard time finding clean water in the areas you want to fish. Best of luck.

This front won't really impact the trout. The main problem is the water gets dirty. You just never know with trout...I had one of my best trips after a major cold front.
