On this episode of Fishing the DMV, I sit down with Michael Eckert, a retired meteorologist with over 40 years of experience at the National Weather Service and a lifelong angler who now calls Lake Anna home.
Michael breaks down how weather truly impacts fishing — from cold fronts and pressure changes to wind direction, water temperature, and storm patterns. We talk about how anglers can read the sky, anticipate shifts in fish behavior, and use weather data to fish smarter and safer year-round.
With decades of forecasting expertise and a passion for the outdoors, Michael now runs LakeAnnaWeather.com
, providing hyper-local forecasts tailored for boaters and fishermen on Lake Anna.
🎣 Whether you’re a weekend warrior or tournament angler, this episode is packed with real-world weather wisdom to help you catch more fish.
