For more than 50 years, Bobby Williams has charter-fished out of Biloxi. Williams has three sons, which led him to dub his fourth charterboat Three Sons IV. He’s fished before and after storms in good and bad conditions. […]
As the weather warms up, I look for lakes with deep structure where big bass can hold and feed. My pick this month is 1,000-acre Lake Okhissa in Franklin County near Bude, one of the newest lakes in the state. […]
This month’s featured Mississippi Hunting Camp takes me back 44 years to Oxford when Bobby Stewart introduced me to “The Great Outdoors.” […]
As an angler and a fisheries biologist, I’m a big fan of aquatic vegetation. Our waters, particularly southern reservoirs, need more vegetation. […]
Hot enough for you? Man, I’m burning up. The older I get, the less tolerant I am of our typical, tropical summers. O.K., I admit it: The air conditioning and soft living have turned me into a woos. […]

Just as my D.O.A. Shrimp hit the water, I felt as though my cast had landed on the caboose of a runaway freight train. The rod pretzelled, and the line came off the reel as the drag sang a high-pitched tune. […]
Bass anglers are never satisfied with the lures that reside in their tackle boxes. In an effort to gain the upper hand over everybody else on the lake, they become amateur cosmetic surgeons who shave, clip and snip legs, arms and lips. […]
The sun was just getting up as Ronnie Capps and Steve Coleman reversed their boat away from Water Valley Ramp and motored out of Billy’s Creek. It was hot already and promised to be even hotter as the day wore on. […]
Deer season will be here before you know it. Now’s the time to make sure yours will be a good one. […]
