Just south of Kent Island, eastern bay is classic known Stingray area for cownose Rays. Hard to tell with water temps cold so far this year but normally Early-Mid June is the stingray "Rut"

Putting in at Sandy Point state park aka Seal Beach and work down the west shoreline towards the Severn river , will save you the ramp permit fee of $50 needed on kent island also.

Bring a good Floper stopper, gaf, fillet knife and pliers. We gaf those suckers best bet is under their head so it controls them and gives you an easy shot with the flooper stopper. Hit them hard a few times to calm them down. Once they arnt going crazy grab there barb with pliers and cut off barb with the knife. Takes one or two to get the system down but will keep you guys from a lot of pain.
