Natural Resources - Striped Bass Recreational Seasons and Fisheries Regulations

Summary

The bill bars the Maryland Department of Natural Resources from creating a catch‑and‑release season for striped bass and orders it to set specific recreational and charter‑boat seasons with daily catch limits and gear rules. It also creates a limited trophy season with size restrictions. In addition, any major fisheries regulation must be accompanied by an economic impact statement reviewed by state entities before publication.
