In this episode of Brown Water Banter, we sit down with the men behind the Inaugural Fishing for Toys Tournament, a Gulf Coast charity event that was born out of a men’s Bible study called Fishers of Men.

What started as a small group of men gathering to study scripture and support one another grew into something much bigger — an outreach focused on serving families and kids in need during the Christmas season. Through Fishers of Men, the group recognized a need in the community and partnered with Pascagoula Police Department to help provide toys, meals, and hope to local families.

We talk about how the Bible study began, how it evolved into an outreach ministry, and how the Fishing for Toys tournament became a natural extension of their mission to serve others. The conversation also dives into community policing, mentorship, faith, and the powerful impact that men stepping up together can have on families and neighborhoods.

This episode is a reminder that real change often starts small — with men willing to check their egos at the door, show up consistently, and put faith into action.
