Signs of warmer weather must have anglers ready to hit the water as the Liars and Lunkers Spring/Summer series started strong with 22 teams showing up at the East Pearl on February 25th, 2024 for the first event of the season. Anglers were greeted with a brisk morning in the low 40s, making that early boat ride a chilly one, but it warmed up quickly turning into a beautiful day. Of the 22 teams, many struggled with the adversities that the Pearl River system delivered on tournament day with that being high muddy river water, mixed with extremely low tides in the marsh. However, some extremely impressive weights were brought back to the scales at the noon weigh-in. Taking home 1st place honors with a whopping 18.97 pounds was Skip Rayborn and Wade Strahan. They also took big bass honors with a 5.24 stud!
