Well-known Mississippi State fisheries biologist Don Jackson (r) and post-doctoral student Dan O'Keefe worked in misty weather Thursday to scientifically tag young catfish. They are working with state government colleagues on a project to provide some 16,000 university-raised fish for restoration of hurricane-ravaged waterways in South Mississippi.
