On the Mid Shore Atlantic Ocean & Bays: Mackerel, Sea Bass, Blue Fish, Tautog, & Rock Fish
On the Mid Shore Chesapeake: Red Drum, Perch & Speckled Trout
And on the Lower Shore Chesapeake bay & Atlantic Ocean: Red & Black Drum
As always be sure to check with your local state natural resources for licensing, seasonal, and size rules.
With hunting season over White Tailed Deer are less shy and can be seen eating the buds off trees.
