Diamond Jim stars in MPT show

This year’s Maryland Fishing Challenge and Diamond Jim contest will be featured Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. on MPT’s Outdoors Maryland.

Cameras follow anglers at Deep Creek Lake and Savage River in Western Maryland, as well as at the Bill Burton State Park Fishing Pier on the Choptank River who are trying to reel in fish to win prizes ranging from a cruise to a motor boat and trailer.

The elusive tagged striped bass nicknamed Diamond Jim and worth $20,000 escapes capture for another year.
