Maryland - Ocean City
This sportfishing haven in southeastern Maryland is just a short run from the Gulf Stream, where you can catch everything from false albacore to marlin. Dolphin, tuna, and sharks are in the blue-water mix, too, which peaks as rising summer temperatures draw the big fish north. Surf casting for bluefish is also picking up on nearby beaches this month.

Guide's Tips
Species: Flounder
Guide: Ocean City Fishing Center; ocfishing.com; 800-322-3065
Rig Specifics: Use a 5 1/2- to 7-foot light spinning or baitcasting rod with 12- to 20-pound test line. Use a decent-sized egg sinker to get to the bottom, which tends to be rough. For bait, fish shiners, squid, and live minnows with mylar skirts over them.
Quick Tip: Flounder sit on dropoff edges, where its goes from very shallow to very deep, whenever the tide is going in or out.
Where to Fish: The bulkheads from Second to Fourth Street provide great public access.
