Cownose Ray
Ocean City, Maryland, provides excellent opportunities for cownose ray fishing in the Sinepuxent and Assawoman Bays. These rays arrive with the warmer waters, typically from late May through September. Look for them in shallow, sandy areas where they forage for crustaceans and mollusks. Drifting with soft crab or clam baits is a productive technique. Given the size and strength of these rays, a medium-heavy rod and reel spooled with at least 20-pound test line is recommended. Consider using a fish finder rig with a circle hook to ensure a solid hookset and facilitate easy release. A local tip: the Route 50 bridge area is a popular spot, but be mindful of boat traffic. Also, be sure to check the local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on ray activity. Remember to handle rays with care and release them responsibly.
