  • MARK-RECAPTURE ASSESSMENT of the RECREATIONAL BLUE CRAB (Callinectes Sapidus) HARVEST in CHESAPEAKE BAY, MARYLAND
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: MARK-RECAPTURE ASSESSMENT OF THE RECREATIONAL BLUE CRAB (Callinectes sapidus) HARVEST IN CHESAPEAKE BAY, MARYLAND Robert Francis Semmler, Master of Science, 2016 Directed By: Professor, Marjorie Reaka, Marine Estuarine Environmental Science In Maryland, commercial blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) harvests are monitored through mandatory, annual harvest reporting, but no annual monitoring exists for recreational fishers. This study used a large-scale mark-recapture program to assess relative exploitation between the recreational and commercial fishing sectors in 15 harvest reporting areas of Maryland, then incorporated movement information and extrapolated reported commercial harvest data to generate statewide estimates of recreational harvest. Results indicate spatial variation in recreational fishing, with a majority of recreational harvests coming from tributaries of the Western Shore and the Wye and Miles Rivers on the Eastern Shore. Statewide, recreational harvest has remained approximately 8% as large as commercial harvest despite management changes in 2008, and remains a larger proportion (12.8%) of male commercial harvest. In addition, this study provides detailed spatial information on recreational harvest and the first information on rates of exchange of male crabs among harvest reporting areas.

  • Maryland's Lower Choptank River Cultural Resource Inventory
    Maryland’s Lower Choptank River Cultural Resource Inventory by Ralph E. Eshelman and Carl W. Scheffel, Jr. “So long as the tides shall ebb and flow in Choptank River.” From Philemon Downes will, Hillsboro, circa 1796 U.S. Geological Survey Quadrangle 7.5 Minute Topographic maps covering the Lower Choptank River (below Caroline County) include: Cambridge (1988), Church Creek (1982), East New Market (1988), Oxford (1988), Preston (1988), Sharp Island (1974R), Tilghman (1988), and Trappe (1988). Introduction The Choptank River is Maryland’s longest river of the Eastern Shore. The Choptank River was ranked as one of four Category One rivers (rivers and related corridors which possess a composite resource value with greater than State signific ance) by the Maryland Rivers Study Wild and Scenic Rivers Program in 1985. It has been stated that “no river in the Chesapeake region has done more to shape the character and society of the Eastern Shore than the Choptank.” It has been called “the noblest watercourse on the Eastern Shore.” Name origin: “Chaptanck” is probably a composition of Algonquian words meaning “it flows back strongly,” referring to the river’s tidal changes1 Geological Change and Flooded Valleys The Choptank River is the largest tributary of the Chesapeake Bay on the eastern shore and is therefore part of the largest estuary in North America. This Bay and all its tributaries were once non-tidal fresh water rivers and streams during the last ice age (15,000 years ago) when sea level was over 300 feet below present. As climate warmed and glaciers melted northward sea level rose, and the Choptank valley and Susquehanna valley became flooded.

  • Maryland's Vision for Oysters
    Maryland’s Vision for Oysters Establish an expanding and sustainable population of native oysters in significant portions of Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. Establish a private aquaculture industry that emerges as a major economic contributor to the State of Maryland while maintaining a more targeted and scientifically managed wild oyster fishery. Photo © Michael Eversmeier Status of Oyster Population and Industry The average number of reported oyster harvesters between 2002 and 2006 was 529. This is a significant decrease from the more than 2,000 harvesters that the oyster fishery supported prior to the disease epizootics of the mid-1980s. Oysters harvested from Chesapeake Bay decreased from over 2 million bushels/year in the 1980’s to just over 100 thousand bushels in 2008-2009. Overall adult abundance in 2008-2009 was approximately 3.5 billion oysters, 1% of the historic population. MARYLAND’S 10-POINT OYSTER RESTORATION PLAN 1. Focus on targeted restoration strategies to achieve ecological and economic goals 2. Expand the sanctuary program 3. Support a more focused and scientifically managed wild oyster fishery 4. Shift commercial production to aquaculture 5. Rehabilitate oyster bar habitat 6. Manage against oyster disease 7. Increase hatchery production 8. Enhance law enforcement 9. Increase citizen involvement 10. Integrate inmate labor Maryland’s Proposed Oyster Sanctuary Network Proposed sanctuary areas include the Magothy River, the area between the mouths of the Patapsco and Back Rivers bounded by the main channel, Upper St. Mary’s River, Point Lookout, Little Choptank River, Upper Patuxent River, mainstem portion and lower tributaries of Choptank River, and area between the main channel and shore from Hooper Strait to Smith Island.

  • 2018 Maryland Oyster Restoration Update
    2018 Maryland Oyster Restoration Update Progress in the Choptank Complex (Harris Creek, Little Choptank River, and Tred Avon River Oyster Sanctuaries) June 2019 The Chesapeake Bay Watershed Agreement, which guides the work of the Chesapeake Bay Program, commits state and federal partners to “restore native oyster habitat and populations in 10 Bay tributaries Harris Creek by 2025, and ensure their protection.” This reinforces the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Oyster Restoration Master Plan and Maryland’s Oyster Restoration and Tred Avon Aquaculture Development Plan. To achieve this outcome, the U.S. Army Corps of Little Engineers’ Baltimore District (USACE), the National Choptank Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the St. Mary’s Maryland Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Manokin and the Oyster Recovery Partnership (ORP) formed the Maryland Oyster Restoration Interagency Work- group (hereafter, Workgroup) under the auspices of the Sustainable Fisheries Goal Implementation Team (GIT) of the Chesapeake Bay Program. The Workgroup, with guidance from consulting sci- entists and the public, coordinates large-scale oyster restoration in selected Maryland tributaries. To date, the Workgroup has developed “oyster restoration tributary plans” that describe how three Maryland Se l ected for l arge-scale oyster tributaries will be restored and monitored, consistent restoration with standards described in the Chesapeake Bay Oys- Recommendedfor large-scale 1 ter Metrics report . oyster restoration This update describes progress on implementing oyster restoration tributary plans for Harris Creek2, the Little Choptank River3, and the Tred Avon River4.
