Special Chesapeake Bay and Coastal Sport Fishing License - Nonresidents - License Fee
Maddy summaryThis bill increases the annual fee for nonresidents seeking a special Chesapeake Bay and coastal sport fishing license in Maryland from $50 to $100. The change applies to individuals who attach this license to a boat registered in another state, allowing them to fish for finfish in the Chesapeake Bay, its tributaries, and Atlantic coastal waters. The law does not alter the existing $50 fee for Maryland residents or the rules for boat owners who purchase the license. These adjustments take effect on October 1, 2024.
