Our Stratos 22.5 fishing boat with a Yamaha 250 outboard is ready for your fishing adventure on the Chesapeake Bay. Reserve it now for upcoming tournaments including the Boatyard Bar and Grill's.

The spring season for the state fish, striped bass, kicks off April 15 in Maryland’s portion of the Chesapeake Bay and its tidal tributaries.

Recreational fishing opportunities for rockfish – as striped bass is known locally – will run from 5 a.m. April 15 through midnight May 15, with a catch limit of one fish per person, per day, 35 inches or larger. Boatyard's spring tournament last year started the same day and probably will again this year.
