I am lucky to have an ISP with a fixed ip address but what happens if my ip address changes, knowing that I have a lightning node on it?

Will the peers be able to find my node? If so, how, with the public key of my node?

yes. the public key uniquely identifies and ip and tor address can change. announces/gossips its info so other nodes can update their graph

Back in the day we used DynDns for isp's that weren't static. Some routers can support it natively..🤔
