About Lower Maryland Chesapeake
Deeper water, stronger tides. Point Lookout marks the Potomac confluence; Solomons the Patuxent. Summer brings seatrout and flounder into the reach of shore anglers; fall sends striper blitzes down the shipping channel.
What people fish for here
What anglers are reporting
Lower Bay. Anglers in the lower Bay are enjoying the excellent striped bass fishing they’ve been patiently waiting for. Striped bass are being caught in a widespread number of locations from shallow water to deep water and everywhere in between. The lower Potomac River from Ragged Point to Piney Point and a few locations upriver have been providing excellent striped bass fishing for anglers casting and jigging . The lower Patuxent River is offering the same good fishing. Casting a mix of paddletails , topwater lures , jerkbaits and crankbaits are all working well in the shallow waters during the morning and evening hours.
