well i plan on fishing monday, but will be home early afternoon so I'm not on the water during the eclipse . I don't know what kind of damage glare from the eclipse can do so I will just stay in side and hopefully be cleaning fish.

If I can get out, I think the fish will just jump in my kayak because they want to see the eclipse....I'll make sure the cooler is open and ready with ice to receive them

I bet zero change.
The entire eclipse lasts 2 hours from when the moon start to cover the suns to when it stops. The totality of coverage will only last about 4 minutes.
This basically means it will only be darkish for about 4 minutes. About equivalent to a really dark storm cloud blocking the sun for four minutes as far as light is concerned.
Atmospheric pressure can be affected by the cooling of the atmosphere by blockage of heat from the sun. Could this trigger a bite? Quite possible. I happen to believe the up and down instability will do the opposite, not in a noticeable way though as the event is just so short of a time frame.
