Got word that the State of MD is considering a closed season from 7/1-12/31 for cownose Rays in the coming year and is open for public comments at this time until 11/10/16. I know that a lot of you guys have rays on the bucket list and come to the Chesapeake area for rays as well as can combine snakeheads in the Potomac on the same trip...

Here is the link to the state page, scroll down to find the cownose comment part
