Striped Bass
While University Park, Maryland, isn't typically known for its striped bass fishing, the tidal influence of the Anacostia River allows for some limited opportunities. Stripers occasionally migrate up the river, especially during the spring spawning run. However, keep in mind that this is not a consistent fishery, and success depends heavily on river conditions and fish migration patterns. If you're targeting stripers here, focus on areas near the mouth of the river where it meets the Potomac. Trolling with deep-diving crankbaits or casting with swimbaits can be effective. A practical tip is to check local fishing reports and regulations before heading out, as striped bass regulations can change frequently. Also, be aware of the strong tidal currents in the Anacostia, which can make boat handling challenging. While not a guaranteed catch, the chance of hooking a striper in this urban environment adds an element of surprise to your fishing experience.
