Anna Maria Island is settling into a wintertime fishing pattern, including frequent cold fronts.
Picking days to head out on the water may prove challenging as we face many winter days of strong winds and rough seas.
This being said, watch the weather forecasts and narrow trips to the warmest days with the least wind.
If you’re strictly an inshore angler, this isn’t quite as crucial, as it’s fairly easy to get around and avoid the cold wind in the backcountry.
But, if you’re planning on getting out in the Gulf of Mexico, you’ll want to pay close attention to conditions.
