Surfing & Surf Fishing · Ocean City, Maryland

How do surf fishing and swimming share the beach?

Answer

Beach Patrol and Town guidance help keep casting and swimming from colliding—follow flagged or posted zone instructions and give wide berth to rods in the wash. Early morning and evening often see more anglers. Never leave baited hooks unattended near kids.
