tournaments can all add up.” But the prize money is incentive enough to keep fishermen in the game. “That may be why there are so many fishing teams in schools now. A lot of young people are getting into the sport. Those programs are impressive. They must have an adult sponsor to go out and supervise the students while they are fishing. The schools now have big tournaments, and the students travel, and advance up the ladder. There are a lot of scholarships available for those who do well.” Tommy has spent a good amount of time teaching fishing techniques through B’n’M Poles and Bass Pro Shops. “For one week every year, there are fishing seminars taking place at 75 to 100 different locations.” Tommy has also taught fishing at the Mississippi Natural Science Museum. As a member of the Magnolia Crappie Club, Tommy says he is seeing more and more husband-and-wife fishing teams as well as a good number of fathers and sons. “The Crappie Club has chapters in a lot of southeastern states. Our club is the oldest – we have been in existence over thirty years.” The Magnolia Crappie Club fishes ten tournaments a year at local lakes and reservoirs around the state. They also work closely with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. “They do studies on growth and numbers, and we push them to do more.” Tommy says his favorite thing about fishing is being out on the water at sunrise. “It is always different, but it is always pretty and peaceful. I try to be the first one there, about thirty minutes before sunrise.” He enjoys fishing in the Ross Barnett Reservoir, Grenada Lake, and in the oxbow lakes off the Mississippi River. “I also have a friend who has a place at Eagle Lake that I like to fish. I probably fish three or four days a week.” He says that over the years, he has fished from Mexico to Alaska and many places in between. Retired from working in the grocery business as an executive for Jitney-Jungle, Tommy has been married to his wife, Linda, for 51 years. “She doesn’t really like to fish, but she loves eating what I catch!” Tommy says he goes deep sea fishing two or three times a year, and he takes his family to Destin for a week each year in June. He and Linda have two daughters, ten years apart. “I have two young grandsons coming up, ages three and five, and I’m going to introduce both of them to fishing!” 42 FALL 2023
