Beautiful Spring weekend on the Casselman River

I spent Saturday morning on the Casselman with Teresa and Jarrett. Teresa caught her first fish and Jarrett was slaying them by the end of the morning. There were plenty of little black stones flying around and the grannoms should be hatching in the next week or so. I would encourage everyone who fishes special regulation waters in Maryland to keep this number in their phone  1-800-635-6124  it is the poacher hotline for the DNR police. The same people who poach fish are usually the ones who leave empty beer cans on the side of the river. We fished a section of the river where we saw beer cans and it was devoid of fish. I know this place always holds fish, so I am pretty sure people are already taking them home for dinner. If you see fisherman keeping fish or fishing with bait please where prohibited report it to the DNR police. Western Maryland has a pretty bad poaching problem, but if we all take pride in protecting our resource we can keep these people in check.
