My wife and I bought our first boat last year, which we used just for boating. While I was in Bass Pro this afternoon, for the upcoming 2019 season I went ahead and purchased a 365 Bay & Coastal Fishing Boat license. However the guy at Bass Pro wasn't sure whether that just covered my guests and me while actually in the Chesapeake Bay, or whether it also covered fishing while in the rivers / tributaries feeding into the bay, e.g. the Severn, South, and other rivers. The question in his mind was "are these tidal or not?" so he was unable to advise me with certainty. So I went ahead and just purchased the license above, knowing I could go back in and add additional licenses later.
I know this is a newbie question, but when it comes to fishing bay-area waters ... I AM a newbie! What say you, the experts?
Thanks.
