Description:

Maryland commercial striped bass harvest monitoring involves the use of 33 check stations composed of registered seafood buyers. Upon completing a fishing trip and returning to dock, commercial striped bass fisherman must have their striped bass counted and weighed by a valid check station. Check station locations are selected for a balance of geographic distribution and population densities of commercial striped bass fishermen to accommodate high volume processing. Check stations record, on the fisherman's permit card, the number and total pounds of fish harvested, tidal finfish harvesting license number, commercial striped bass permit number, gear type, and general area the fish were harvested (Chesapeake Bay or Atlantic Ocean) on a daily basis for each fishermen who checks in at their establishment. Commercially harvested striped bass must have a harvest tag affixed through the gill and mouth, which is traceable to the harvester.
