Yateley versus Horton
We have something a little different this month, something I'm sure you will enjoy – two iconic carp waters, both containing a new stock of huge, proper English monsters. Both have had books written about them, and since that time, many, if not all of the original stock that originally made the lakes famous have now passed away.
Horton Church Lake inherited the Fox Pool stock when the lake was netted by Ian Welsh’s Leisure Sport Angling – Jack The Net Ripper, Shoulders, The Parrot and Co. made Horton famous overnight, along with those who took advantage of the stocking such as Dave Lane, Chilly, Keith Jenkins and others. They became household names after catching these legendary carp in numbers. The Yateley Complex stock was allowed to die out naturally. Bazil, Heather, Jumbo and co. gradually died off, and the Car Park’s Big Orange was the last of these legends, I believe.
Both these complexes have been restocked over a period of years by the controlling bodies and now contain a new stock of monster carp. We have had quite a few Horton articles in BC over the past decade, so many of the lake’s big’uns are well known to us. However, Yateley has gone very quiet compared to the old Bazil days when Terry Hearn and I fished together and wrote regularly about the lakes every month in BC.
