Assateague Island and Ocean City
Maryland's Ocean City and Assateague Island surf fishing has been good as well-fed striped bass and big bluefish moved into the beach waters. The blues like finger mullet rigs, and the striped bass seem to prefer cut menhaden and artificial lures like the Hopkins metal squid and some swimming plugs.
Inside the Ocean City Inlet, rockfish are caught on drifted, live eels or by casting large Rat-L-Traps and other cast-and-retrieve lures.
