often it muddies the water, making it brown, reducing visibilty. This can have a negative effect on fishing. In light rain, before the mud flows, fishing can be great.

The fisherman gets wet. It has to do with visiblity two ways one is sunlight, no sun little vis. Muddy water, no vis. And it also lowers the water temp, which can put fish back in deeper water. (That mainly applies to lakes though)

If you are way out there, it has no effect at all. It is best to be on a very large boat, as sudden squalls can make it very choppy and turn over a small boat. The little bit of rain that falls from the sky is nothing compared to the cubic miles of salt water below, and does not affect the salinity. I've caught a lot of fish in storms.
