{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Maryland Fishing and Boating Coming Back Tomorrow, May 7, at 7 am

Hi Adam,

Thank you for sharing the news. A large thanks are in order to both CCA-MD and Trout Unlimited for working with the Maryland government to allow responsible recreational fishing in Maryland to resume.

If you are going to fish in Maryland right now be aware of the following: 

FISHING

Effective Thursday, May 7, at 7 a.m, recreational fishing activities, including catch-and-release, are allowed, however:

  • When fishing from a boat, one must be with immediate family members or people with which they reside.
    • No more than 10 people may be on a boat at one time, including captain and crew.
  • When fishing from onshore or at a pier, social distancing guidelines must be followed.
    • DNR fishing piers will reopen immediately. 
  • Fishing tournaments remain prohibited at this time.
  • All normal rules and regulations regarding fishing are in effect and must be followed, including creel limits, gear restrictions, and seasons.

"There are some additional things we can do safely, right now, prior to the lifting of the stay-at-home order," Hogan (R) said during a Wednesday afternoon news conference where he announced state parks and beaches will reopen as of 7 a.m. Thursday for boating, camping, fishing and tennis. 

Welcome back to the water everyone!
