June issue a real page-turner

Enid Lake crappie fishing, crankbaiting for bass, catfish grabbing and deer management in Mississippi Sportsman.

At this very moment the final touches are being put on the June issue of Mississippi Sportsman, and later this afternoon (May 15) the magazine will head to the printers. That means that, within the week, the issue will be arriving in mailboxes across the state.

Whether you plan on trolling for crappie at Enid Lake, wrestling catfish at the Rez or hauling in trout at Horn Island, let this issue be your guide.
