Discounted Fishing License
Now through January 31, 2015, Marylanders who have not bought an annual nontidal or tidal fishing license since 2011 will automatically enjoy a 50% discount on their fishing license purchase.
It’s as simple as logging into the DNR Compass Licensing System or visiting a DNR Service Center or a tackle shop to buy a 2015 license. The discount is automatic, but only through January, 2015.
The promotion is designed to encourage anglers to return to Maryland waters and enjoy the excellent fishing the state has to offer.
Fishing is one of the best values in life, promoting quality time in nature with friends and family.
For a limited time, the already low cost of entry is just 50% better

Recreation Upgrades Set for Local Parks throughout Maryland
……In Garrett County, the town of Mountain Lake Park will receive $150,000 to acquire 100 acres to protect the Little Youghiogheny River watershed and its critical Brook Trout habitat from development. The town is contributing $52,000 toward the purchase, and intends to use the property for passive recreation, including adding trails to connect to the existing system in Loch Lynn Heights.
The project is a partnership between Program Open Space (local and state-side) and the town. The funding is comprised of $10,000 in POS local and $140,000 in POS state-side funds. In exchange, the town is granting DNR a perpetual conservation easement that requires buffers on about 7,000 linear feet of streams that feed into the Youghiogheny River.
Garrett County will also receive $13,140 to install fencing for a dog park at the 32-acre McHenry Park.

Multiple Winter Storms to Cross US Through Christmas
As many as three storms with snow, ice, rain and thunderstorms may affect areas from the South Central states to the Northeast through the weekend and after Christmas.
Mother Nature will provide a stormy weather pattern over the next couple of weeks.
While details including timing, track and exact precipitation type for the storms have yet to be determined, the storms will bring enough precipitation to slow travel as they move along.
According to AccuWeather.com Long-Range Expert Paul Pastelok, “The storms will develop in the Southern states and then track northeastward. How far north the storms track into the cold air will determine the extent of snow.”
