Wendandt breaks the drought

Clark Wendlandt is finally on the scoreboard. He caught a 3-plus pounder at 1:20 on a popping frog.

“Gosh, I needed that bite,” he said. “I feel a little better. That fish bit it hard and ate it.”

Wendlandt plans to stick with the topwater frog plan the rest of the day, saying, “I’ve got nothing else. I’ve got the most confidence in shallow with a frog.”
