CASTROL ANGLERS TO TEACH FISHING TECHNIQUES
PRIOR TO WAL-MART FLW TOUR EVENT ON KENTUCKY LAKE

Clinic to be held at Wal-Mart Tire and Lube Express in Benton

BENTON, Ky. (April 26, 2006) - 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 Saturday, May 6.

The clinic will be held from 5-7 p.m. at the front of the Wal-Mart
Supercenter located at 310 West Fifth St. in Benton. The event precedes
the Wal-Mart FLW Tour event taking place on Kentucky Lake May 10-13.

The free clinic is designed for people of all ages and skill
levels. The first hour focuses on specific techniques the anglers use,
including tips on tying knots, casting and selecting tackle. During the
second hour, 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 Wal-Mart FLW Tour
Championship winners and past winners of the lucrative Ranger M1
tournament, having taken home top prizes of $600,000 and $700,000 cash,
respectively.

"We're proud to once again offer fishing seminars along the
Wal-Mart FLW Tour as a way to give back to our loyal customers," said Castrol
spokesperson Tracy Curtis King. "As the sport of fishing continues to
grow, we're pleased to be helping anglers of all skill levels learn new
techniques. Our pro angling team is excited to introduce the sport to a
new generation of anglers."

Additional 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.
