FLW PRESS RELEASE
Clark
Wendlandt makes top 10s. It’s just what he does almost better than almost
anyone else. In fact, he’s tied for the second most top 10s in Walmart FLW Tour
history with 28.
So
seeing Wendlandt’s name in the sixth-place slot after day one of the Walmart
FLW Tour event presented by Ranger Boats on the Potomac River really should
have been no surprise. Of course, Wendlandt also has three Tour victories, and
he’s put himself in contention for No. 4 after posting the second-largest limit
of day two – 17 pounds, 3 ounces – to overtake Adrian Avena and Bryan Schmitt
for the top spot.
His
two-day total is 32-10.
“I
had a good day; pretty similar to yesterday,” Wendlandt says. “I just had that
5-pounder today.”

Like
many of the other top anglers, the pro from Leander, Texas, has found an area of
the river pretty much to himself and has been tight-lipped about his exact
pattern. He is covering a lot of water, though, and many of the spots he fished
today were the same as on day one.
That
fact would worry Wendlandt if the tournament was being held on a lake, as he
doesn’t know if his pattern would hold up on other types of fisheries. However,
being that the Potomac is a tidal fishery, he’s far more optimistic.
