🦪 Oyster season on the Mississippi Gulf Coast is finally showing signs of a real comeback — and we brought the experts into the studio to explain exactly how it’s happening.
In this episode of Brown Water Banter, we’re joined by Jason Rider, Shellfish Bureau Director, and Eric Broussard, Deputy Director Office of Marine Fisheries with the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources. They break down the science, history, and management behind Mississippi’s oyster reefs and what it takes to responsibly reopen oyster season.
🌊 How Mississippi oyster reefs declined and what recovery actually looks like
This episode pulls back the curtain on oyster management — from diver reef assessments to harvest limits — and explains why oyster recovery is a long game that affects far more than what ends up on your plate.
