In this episode we talk with Patrol Captain Mike Strickland and Biologists Eric Giolio from the Department of Marine Resources to clear up some of the biggest questions Mississippi boaters and anglers have about what’s legal, what’s not, and what people get wrong once they hit the water. The conversation covers boating safety, no-wake zones, fishing licenses, and how DMR’s role ties into both conservation and enforcement.
🎣 What Mississippi anglers need to know about licenses, trout, redfish, and offshore regulations
🚤 Why boating and water safety take priority during the busiest times of the year
⚓ How no-wake zones, anchored boats, and common on-the-water mistakes can get people in trouble

This episode is packed with useful information for anyone fishing or boating on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and helps explain the rules in a way that actually makes sense.
