Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Maryland on freshwater or tidal water.
Boats: Maryland's reservoirs (Deep Creek, Liberty, Loch Raven, Prettyboy, Triadelphia, Rocky Gorge) take a trailered boat via a DNR-listed ramp; many Chesapeake tidal creek access points are car-top/kayak only.
Bank & bivvy camping: Camp at Maryland state parks and forests near several of these waters (Deep Creek Lake, Rocky Gap, Patapsco Valley); DNR fishing-access sites elsewhere are day-use only.
Tackle: Statewide bass, panfish and rockfish limits apply unless posted otherwise for a specific water; nontidal trout-stocked put-and-take waters require the Maryland trout stamp. Check the current DNR fishing guide for this specific water.
Boat ramps: 1 mapped — Boat ramp.

Anyone 16 or older needs a Maryland fishing licence — a nontidal freshwater licence is about $20.50 resident / $40 non-resident annual (with short-term options), while tidal Chesapeake Bay and coastal water needs a separate, free Chesapeake Bay & Coastal Sport Fishing registration. A Maryland trout stamp (~$5) is required in addition to fish for or possess trout on nontidal put-and-take waters. Residents 65 and older need no licence. Buy from DNR at dnr.maryland.gov. A Maryland fishing licence (tidal registration for Chesapeake/coastal water, nontidal licence inland) covers this water — it's a DNR-listed public fishing access site.
