Maryland youth anglers, are you up for a challenge?!
The Youth Bass Bash Challenge is going on now. From May 20 to June 27, anyone under 16 who catches a tagged bass (see photo below) in Sharpsburg and Woodsboro Ponds and reports it to DNR by calling 301-898-5443 will be entered into a drawing for a grand prize of a behind-the-scenes tour at the National Aquarium in Baltimore!
Join DNR and Go Fish Maryland for two fishing bashes to conclude the program.
Youth Bass Bash – Sharpsburg Pond – June 20
Youth Bass Bash – Woodsboro Pond – June 27
At each event:
- Youth anglers can continue fishing for tagged bass.
- One winner announced at the end of the event will receive a gift certificate for a behind-the-scenes tour at the National Aquarium.
Limited fishing gear will be available, but participants are encouraged to bring their own gear if possible. Registration is required. For any questions, please contact fishingevents.dnr@maryland.gov
Cast a line, make some memories outdoors, and see if you can reel in a tagged bass! #GoFishMD
