Please direct all enquiries to: info at yateleyangling.co.uk *CEMEX Day Ticket Report* Yateley South Lake mirror carp at 24lb+South Lake-following extensive work by the Cemex Angling fishery management team over the Winter, the South Lake is fishing extremely well, regular producing multiple catches. Lots of 20lbers, lots of smiling anglers, but worth pointing out that the South is quickly becoming as popular as Sandhurst, so booking ahead is strongly advised, particularly for weekends. North Lake-results vary, but plenty of chances if prepared to be mobile-day sessions stalking are proving to be productive. Even our very own "Kingy" landed one the other night-nice 20lb common came as a bit of a shock for Martin, who is used to blanking merrily on the Car Park Lake. Sandhurst Lake-the jewel in the Yateley day ticket trio continues to fulfill anglers dreams by the day, with the big girls all making regular appearances over the last few weeks. The successful winter bait approach of maggots is now starting to die off, with better catches coming over particles and pellets. Please call 01252 861 955 / 01252 873 123 for bookings and availability. *Etang Des Royales* Despite the poor weather during the first few weeks of April, things have really started to hot up at Etang des Royales, with carp to 50lb+. There is now only one week left on the big lake in 2008 (30 Aug-6 Sept), however spaces are still available for 2009. YAC Team member "Kingy" is currently bouncing up and down with excitement as his first trip to Royales is only days away now - details of his adventure will be in the next YAC newsletter. It is also be worth noting that the plan to remove the Catfish from the big lake to allow the carp to prosper means the small lake now contains a good head of Cats up to 100lb+ and can be hired separately.Etang Des Royales DVD You can preview the excitement of fishing at this wonderful French lake by purchasing the Etang Des Royales DVD .

Line that has been sat on spools since last season could easily let you down just at that vital moment. Whether you opt for standard mono, prefer braid or the technical edge of fluorocarbon, the job of stripping off your reels and re-loading no longer needs to be a great chore, with thanks to a few handy gadgets that I use. The Berkley Line Stripper tools make light work of the tedious task of removing old line from your reels. The original model takes 2 x AA batteries and strips line off in minutes, depositing it in a neat and tidy bundle for you to collect up. Berkley Line Stripper / Hook SharpenerBerkley Line Stripper / Hook Sharpener Original Code 1065661 R.R.P ?6.99 The latest TEC version of the same tool requires 4 x AA batteries and does the same job, only 15% faster-around 150yds per minute-and the improved design offers more comfort during heavy use, fitting your hand perfectly for a secure grip. Berkley TEC Line Stripper / Hook SharpenerBerkley TEC Line Stripper / Hook Sharpener Improved Code 1131067 R.R.P ?9.99 Both models also feature a neat little rotating hook sharpener. NB:Please take a few more minutes to help protect wildlife and cut your discarded line into pieces before disposal. The Rapala Line Counter comes with a lighted display and measures line as it passes through the counter in feet. It can be attached to your rod securely with a lock switch which holds the line in place. Particularly useful when trying to share that expensive spool of braid over 3 reels!Rapala Line Counter Rapala Line Counter Code RLLC R.R.P ?19.99 However, I have discovered that this handy piece of kit is more than just a counter for just putting line on your reels! I've been using it to mark out all my spots on the lake. Upon arriving at the swim, cast your marker out and once you have found your favoured area, simply attach the counter retrieve the marker back. Make a note of the distance recorded on the counter and when it comes to fishing that swim, attach the counter to your rod, pull off the required length, clip up and you should be back on exactly the same spot. *Latest Products * *Name* *Price * *Description* *Photo* Thinking Anglers Line Wipes ?1.99 Completely safe to use with mono's or flouro carbons, simply cast out, then hold a wipe in front of reel seat and retrieve your line, ensuring it totally clean for the next session.
