From
oxbow lakes and coastal marshes to professional tournaments, fishing
is by far one of the most popular outdoor activities in Mississippi.
The state's mild climate promotes a year-round season for the many game fish that thrive here, including more than 175 species of freshwater fish. The most popular freshwater game species include bass (largemouth, smallmouth and striped), bream (redear and bluegill), crappie (white and black) and catfish (channel, blue and flathead). Light tackle anglers and deep-sea enthusiasts alike can enjoy the diversity of the game fish in the rich estuaries and marshes of the back bays and barrier islands as well as in the Gulf of Mexico. A vast array of deep-sea charters is available. Experienced outfitters provide knowledge, tips, and tricks that will prove invaluable as you follow your passion. If you plan to fish in the public areas, please call to check for special seasonal regulations.
