Fishing Report
Maryland’s Oct. 14 fishing report expects average clarity across most Bay and river portions, with above-average tidal currents through Friday tied to the Oct. 10 new moon.
A roundup of the state report says striped bass are feeding in the shallows and at the Bay Bridge, bluefish are thick in the lower Bay, and northern puffers are back in force.
On Idaho’s Upper Salmon River, the first fall 2026 steelhead report says Idaho Fish and Game began interviewing anglers on Oct. 8, found low effort throughout the week, and noted most anglers were observed in river location code 15, downstream of the North Fork.
