Maryland Bowfishing - Chesapeake Bay Bowfishing for Stingray - Carp - Snakehead

Bowfishing on Maryland's Chesapeake Bay

Bowfishing is a new addition here at Poseidon Waterfowl! We were looking for an activity to pass the time in the offseason and we found the perfect one. We fish the same waters we hunt, and target the invasive species of fish here in Maryland’s waters.

Our charters are all-inclusive and include equipment, fish cleaning, and drinks. You are welcome to bring any food or beverages you would like.

**NO ALCOHOL**

The Poseidon Boat
We shoot from a 22’ Sea Ark Predator that is fully customized. Ran by a Mercury 200HP inboard jet motor, this boat can get into the shallow flats where the fish are. An 80lb Minn Kota trolling motor is used to troll through the shallow grassy waters. There is a custom fitted shooting platform with 14 MurkLight LEDs run by a Morpower generator for all night shooting action. There is plenty of room for anything you may need or want to bring.

OLD clothing and shoes are recommended to wear; bringing an extra set of clothing is not a bad idea. It is common to get dirty by putting the fish in the barrel

Stingray Trips
For one of the most exciting, adrenaline packed experiences, stingrays are at the top of the list. Here in Maryland we are lucky enough to have access to chasing these animals. We have two types of stingrays we hunt, Cownose stingrays, which can grow in excess of 40 pounds, and the Southern stingray that can grow to over 100 pounds.

I run stingray trips from June-August for Cownose Stingrays, Southern Stingrays, Puffer fish, and Needlefish
