DNR Maryland Fisheries Service

The Maryland Fisheries Service, part of the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, manages and conserves the state's fish populations and aquatic ecosystems. They oversee activities like fishing regulation enforcement, habitat preservation, and fish stocking to support sustainable recreation and commercial fishing. They also monitor fish health, enforce fishing laws, and work to ensure healthy, sustainable fisheries for current and future generations. Their goal is to balance environmental conservation with recreational and economic use of Maryland's water resources.
