The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) wants to inform boaters of a boat ramp closure at Percy Quin State Park in McComb, Mississippi. Due to recent flooding, aquatic vegetation has accumulated on and around the ramp, making it inaccessible. MDWFP staff are working to resolve the issue and restore access. The public will be notified once the boat ramp reopens.

Bank fishing at the park remains open to the public. Anglers must have a valid state lake permit and a Mississippi fishing license unless exempt under state law.
