Local Species Insights: Striped Bass
Striped bass, locally called rockfish, are the crown jewel of Chesapeake Bay fishing. These powerful gamefish are known for their aggressive strikes and strong fighting ability, making them a favorite target for charter fishing. Maryland's striped bass population benefits from excellent habitat diversity, from shallow grass beds where they ambush prey to deeper channels where they school during migrations. The bay's abundant forage base of menhaden, blue crabs, and eels supports healthy rockfish throughout the year. Peak fishing typically occurs during spring and fall when cooler water temperatures trigger feeding activity and migration patterns bring fish within easy reach of charter boats.
