That is always a tell tale sign for me fishing will be tough. I have a pasture across the road from my and before I leave if its light I look for the cows. All the cows laying down = never a good day on the water.
Don't know the particulars as to why...but its an old rule my grandfather went by and its held pretty much true for me too.
As far as the moon... It tends to be better on the days leading up to and after more so than on. I find though if they run water pretty good during the day the fishing at night isn't as good regardless of moon. A night bite I want low water for a day or so preceeding it at least.
