The Mississippi Department of Marine Resources will open Mississippi waters north of the Intracoastal Waterway for shrimping at 6 a.m. on July 7, according to a news release Tuesday.  Read the Full story in the Mississippi Press.

Expect the water to be cloudier after the trawls begin to stir things up.  But if you see a boat culling their catch, check for cobia (and sharks) nearby.
