Fishing

Anglers can try their hand at freshwater pond fishing at the small pond located near the parking area. The pond maintains a healthy population of large mouth bass and blue gill. Fishing is also available along the shores of the Sassafras River or in the dynamic tidal pond. Species that may be caught include catfish, large mouth bass, perch, pan fish and striped bass. Appropriate Maryland licenses are required for fishing on Sassafras NRMA.
