The Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks (MDWFP) has closed Lake Monroe until further notice due to extensive tornado damage. Lake Monroe is a 99-acre state fishing lake located in Monroe County between Aberdeen and Amory.
Anglers and campers have additional options to choose from in northeast Mississippi. Lake Lamar Bruce, Trace State Park, and Tombigbee State Park are popular nearby destinations.
