Maryland's spring turkey season yields record harvest
Unofficial tallies show 2,548 gobblers taken in Maryland during four weeks, likely the largest spring bearded-turkey harvest on record. Western Maryland supplied 1,315 gobblers, while the lower Eastern Shore counties and Southern Maryland contributed substantial shares. Context notes a dark side with many hunters charged for baiting turkeys, including a $200 fine for one Middletown man and multiple charges across Dorchester and Calvert counties with possible $1,500 fines per offense.
