The Mississippi Department of Marine Resources (MDMR) announced that the state recreational fishing season for red snapper (Lutjanus campechanus) will close Sunday, July 10, 2022, at 11:59 p.m. After the closure, no red snapper shall be landed or possessed in Mississippi state territorial waters.
Anglers should close any trips that are active or expired as soon as possible. As with previous years, the MDMR implements a mid-season closure and determines the appropriate re-opening date to maximize anglers’ opportunities for harvest of federally managed species.
