Depends on the direction. I'm usually fishing in bays so depending on the direction I may be fine. 15-20 mph is about my limit because it's hard to cast in, my trolling motor has anchor mode so once I'm on my spot I don't worry much about the boat. Having said that I fish out of an 18' aluminum boat that is possessed at times and will sit sideways in the wind just because it can, it's almost like my wife put a spell on it. I may need to look into that. LOL
