KISSIMMEE, Fla. (Feb. 1, 2005) — Some of FLW Outdoors’
most successful professional anglers will offer tournament-winning
tips and techniques when they host the Wal-Mart Tire & Lube Express
Fishing and Automotive Clinic Sunday in Kissimmee.
For the second stop on the 2005 FLW Tour, there will be two clinics
located at the Tire, Lube and Express department at the Wal-Mart Supercenters
located at 904 Cypress Parkway and at 1471 East Osceola Parkway in
Kissimmee. Both clinics will be held from 4-6 p.m. The events precede
the Wal-Mart FLW Tour event to take place on Lake Toho Feb. 9-12.
The free clinics are designed for people of all ages and skill levels.
The first hour focuses on specific techniques top pro anglers use,
including tips on tying knots, casting and selecting tackle. During
the second hour, FLW Tour anglers answer questions, pose for photos
and sign autographs. Participants may also enter a drawing for goodie
bags filled with sponsor products, shirts and hats.
Anglers scheduled to attend are Castrol team members Bobby Curtis
of Siloam Springs, Ark.; David Dudley of Lynchburg, Va.; Mike Surman
of Boca Raton, Fla.; Carl Svebek III of Siloam Springs, Ark.; and
Darrel Robertson of Jay, Okla. Robertson and Dudley are both Forrest
L. Wood Championship winners and past winners of the lucrative Ranger
M1 tournament, having taken home top prizes of $600,000 and $700,000
cash, respectively.
“Getting involved in the communities hosting the Wal-Mart FLW
Tour has been a great way for us to give back and to thank the anglers
and tournament fans who have been loyal consumers of our products
for many years,” said Castrol spokesperson Tracy Curtis. “Fishing
is a wonderful family activity that has no boundaries on who can participate.
Many fishing fans have enjoyed these seminars in the past, and we
are pleased to be helping anglers of all skill levels learn new tricks
of the trade and promoting the sport to a new generation of anglers.”
Additional seminar information will include details about what to
check on autos and boats before heading out to the water; instructions
about how to catch more fish; what life is like as a pro angler and
general auto tips from the pros who put an average of 40,000 miles
a year on their vehicles.
