Access plentiful on lower Pascagoula

Parallel the edge of a grass line to keep your lure in the strike zone longer if bass are suspended on the edges.

Marinas and boat launches with easy access to the marsh are plentiful on the Pascagoula River. Some are private pay-to-use ramps and others are public ramps that require no fee.

Off the West River, Gautier City Park has well-maintained, free launches and ample parking. The launch is off Mary Walker Bayou and requires only a short boat ride to West River just north of Highway 90.

Also off the West River, Mary Walker Marina has well maintained launches, live bait and is in Gautier directly on Mary Walker Bayou.

Off the East River the city of Pascagoula recently built Lighthouse Park, which provides free and nice launches just south of Highway 90 right on East River. There is a large parking lot.

Further up the East River a few miles is Little River Marina. Little River has a large parking lot, well maintained launches and an area for hosting weigh-ins. There is also a nice restaurant.
