While Ridgely, Maryland, isn't directly on the Chesapeake Bay, landlocked striped bass (rockfish) can be found in some of the freshwater systems connected to the Choptank River. These stripers are typically stocked fish, so their presence can vary year to year. The best time to target them is during the cooler months, spring and fall, when they are more active. Focus your efforts on deeper pools and areas with current in the Tuckahoe Creek and its impoundments. Large swimbaits or crankbaits that mimic the local baitfish are good choices. Be sure to check the Maryland Department of Natural Resources regulations for size and creel limits, as they may differ from saltwater striped bass regulations. Remember that these are freshwater adapted stripers, so handle them carefully upon release to ensure their survival.
