History & Context

Bountiful Ocean, Coastal Bays Lure Fishermen Every school kid in Maryland learns early that Ocean City is the "White Marlin Capital of the World." It’s no fish story. Nor is the OC coast’s reputation as a prime spot for catching blue marlin, yellowfin tuna, mako, dolphin. Closer to shore, surf fishing yields flounder, bluefish, sea trout and kingfish, while the coastal bays teem with tautog, ling cod, trout, croakers and, of course, Maryland’s famous blue crabs. Marinas Marinas offer charter fleets for inshore, offshore, and deep-sea fishing. Most boats carry a maximum of six passengers for half-day, full-day, or overnight trips. U.S. Coast Guard-licensed captains operate all vessels. With about 90 boats at five different marinas in the Ocean City area, you’re sure to find the right trip for you. Many marinas also will help put together trips by combining individuals or parties interested in an outing. Call as soon as you know when you'd like to go out.
