Saint George Creek is a public river in St. Mary's County, Maryland, managed by Maryland DNR. You can fish it on a Maryland fishing licence (a free tidal Chesapeake Bay & Coastal registration for tidal water, or a nontidal licence inland); bank access is at Maryland DNR-listed fishing access sites and bridge crossings. Maryland has no blanket streambed-access law; away from a public access point, wading or bank fishing may cross private property, so check current signage or ask permission. Public access confirmed via MD DNR fishing access site.

Night fishing: No statewide night-fishing closure in Maryland on freshwater or tidal water.
Boats: Most Western Maryland and Piedmont creeks are waded or floated by canoe/kayak; the tidal Chesapeake tributaries take larger boats.
Bank & bivvy camping: You can fish this water on a Maryland fishing licence (tidal registration for Chesapeake/coastal water, nontidal licence inland); bank and boat access is at MD DNR-listed fishing access sites — check current signage for any water, as bank ownership and access rights vary by reach.
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: 2 mapped — Boat ramp, 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.
