Wheeler wants to make a statement

James Overstreet and I are following Jacob Wheeler. We've been on him for about 30 minutes and he's already moved three times. Before we found him, Wheeler caught one fish that had to go on the measuring board before it went in the livewell.

 

Wheeler has about a 7-pound lead going into the day. With a day off yesterday in this four-day tournament, Wheeler equated that to halftime of a football game. He said before takeoff that he wants to come out and make a big statement in the third quarter. Apparently that statement is going to involve burning a lot of gas.
