If you're a fishing enthusiast, then you must have heard of Earning Stripes Sportfishing. We are the most sought-after Chesapeake Bay fishing charters because of the quality of their service and the abundance of fish in the area. The company has been operational for several years and has built a reputation as one of the best in the business. As for our fishing reports, they are updated regularly on their website so that customers can keep track of what's happening at sea.


We get these questions a lot. What month is best to fish Chesapeake Bay? What is the rarest fish in the Chesapeake Bay? What do fish eat in the Chesapeake Bay? The best time to fish in the Chesapeake Bay depends on the type of fish you're targeting. In general, the spring and fall seasons are excellent for fishing in the Chesapeake Bay, as many fish species migrate from the ocean into the bay for spawning during spring and migrate out of the bay and into the ocean during fall. The rarest fish in Chesapeake Bay is the Atlantic sturgeon, which is critically endangered due to overfishing. Fishing for Atlantic sturgeon is strictly prohibited in the Chesapeake Bay. The diet of Chesapeake Bay fish varies depending on their species, size, and location within the bay, with common food sources including small crustaceans, such as shrimp and crabs, as well as small fish, such as minnows and silversides. Larger fish, such as striped bass and bluefish, feed on smaller fish and crustaceans while bottom-dwelling flounder feed on worms, clams, and other invertebrates found on the bay's bottom.

Our services include rockfish fishing, redfish fishing in Chesapeake Bay, and targeting a variety of species such as striped bass, black drum, bluefish, cobia, flounder, redfish, black seabass, skate, spadefish, and Spanish mackerel.
