Jersey Boy takes lead with solid limit.

FLW PRESS RELEASE
It’s amazing what a good night’s sleep can do, apparently.
Hailing from Vineland, N.J. – roughly three and a half hours
from the Potomac River – Adrian Avena gushed about getting to sleep in his own
bed Saturday night before practice began for the Walmart FLW Tour event
presented by Ranger Boats on the Potomac River. He had plenty of reason to
gush, too, after sacking up 16 pounds, 12 ounces to grab the lead on day one.

“I had a good day, but I’d even like the bag I culled,” Avena
says. “I probably culled another 12-pound bag. I had 15 keepers today, and
there were a few places where I left them biting.”
That has been pretty much par for the course for Avena since
practice started. He figures he averaged 12 to 14 pounds a day during practice
doing some pretty “off-the-wall stuff.”
