In Maryland's Chesapeake Bay, the Striped Bass (Rockfish) season and limits below.

Season Dates: 
Spring Season: May 1 to July 31 
Striped Bass Closure: August 1 to August 31 
Reopens: September 1 to December 5
Catch and Release December 6 through April 30
Catch Limit: One striped bass per person, per day. 
Minimum Length: 19 inches. 
Maximum Length: 24 inches

We target Catfish, and White Perch during Striped Bass closure. The fish in these waters include Striped Bass (Rockfish), Catfish, Perch, Spot, Pickerel and more. 

You can expect to do some drifting, jigging, bottom fishing, live lining or maybe something more specialized in this area. Capt. Eric also offers fly fishing, but you will need to bring your own fly gear and having experience fly fishing is highly recommended.
Trips with Stella Charters are very kid-friendly, and educational so feel free to make a family day out of it! The boat has a enclosure to help you stay warm on cold days. Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are also a good idea to bring so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!
Capt. Eric will bring you aboard a 30’ NauticStar 28XS Offshore center console with room for 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers and the best electronics on the market. There’s a toilet/sink on board for your convenience. You’ll find top of the line rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you. All live bait and tackle is included. There’s no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for some fishing! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It’s never a bad idea to bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen (non-spray). Bottled water will be available for you.

Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are welcome aboard. Please drink responsibly and "NO Glass Bottles"

PLEASE REMEMBER THAT FIRST MATE WORKS FOR TIPS. 20% IS THE MINIMUM STANDARD
