After 4 blanks fishing for the Tench ,Raymond Lambert was packing up after session number 5 and had 2 takes at once, A Tench at 5lb 14oz which seemed quite empty underneath following spawning he reckons it would have weighed nearer 7lb before spawning. He also had an Eel at 3 lb 8oz

Carlo had not fished North House for about a year, So he was looking forward to a session there.

He caught a 24.14lb mirror at midnight, it went straight into a weed bed but he remained patient and kept a tight line on it and eventually it came free.

The second one was an old common which also gave him the run around.

New member Chris Gallagher fished for the very first time at Beckerings on a 24hr session - he had this lovely Common at 25lb 12oz. It was caught on a sticky bloodworm pop up over a bed of corn hemp manilla and the krill with some chilli sauce.

Member Reminder – Otter Fencing & Pathway Access

All members are reminded that tackle or equipment must not be leant against or hung on the Otter Fencing at any of our waters. The fencing is there to protect our fisheries, and placing items against it can cause damage.

Please also ensure that the path around Beckerings remains clear at all times. Do not obstruct the walkway with tackle, barrows, or equipment, so fellow members can move around the venue safely and without difficulty.

Alders Farm Open Day

On Saturday the Luton Angling Club Junior Team fished the junior Match at Alders Farm arranged by CRT as part of the Alders Farm open day, they fished against six other local Clubs and organisations.

The weather wasn’t great as it was cold with wind and rain, and we didn’t get the greatest draw with wind and rain in some of the lads faces. The fishing wasn’t easy, but our lads stuck at it.

Alex hooked a large Carp on light gear in the afternoon which he very skilfully played for over 20 minutes listening to the advice of how to play it with the light elastic he had, but he was very unfortunate because the fish came up with a branch snagged on it and it threw the hook.

Alex was distraught after losing this fish as can be seen in the picture taken by his dad, but he got over it and carried on. He did however get a special award at the end of the match for the way he played this fish and conducted himself, well done Alex.

We won this match a year ago but came last this year, that’s fishing and you can’t win all the time. There is always next year, and the skills of our team are constantly improving thanks to the hard work put in by the coaching teams and the juniors themselves.

A big well done to the lads who fished and the team managers Cody and Jack who both came up through our junior ranks.

At the same time, the Luton coaches were running a well-received Let’s Fish session on another part of the complex.

We hope that several attendees who showed an interest will now join the club. Encouragingly, several of them were girls, so we may soon have enough members to form an all-girls team.

Match Report 3rd June South Lagoon Wyboston

We met at Wyboston on a cool morning with a gentle breeze, did our admin and checked the new Club books, did our draw, and then set off for our pegs. As we set up some ominous grey clouds started to appear and the breeze stiffened, and 30 minutes after starting the rain appeared, drizzle at first becoming heavier, which had everyone reaching for umbrellas and wet weather gear, which always makes fishing difficult. Another wet Luton Wednesday in prospect !

We had a couple of hours steady rain, which cleared around lunchtime and apart from another heavy shower as everyone was packing up the rain stayed away in the afternoon. Just after we started Tristan Davis, one of our local EA Enforcement Officers came round and checked all our rod licences, all of which were (as expected) in good order, and was good to see him out checking.

Many of us will see him again at the Alders Farm open day this weekend on the EA stand. Later on in the morning Richard Darbon brought Terry Vickers out to see us, Terry is still recovering from a recent heart attack. The outing cheered Terry up a lot, it was good to see you Terry and we hope you are out fishing with us all again soon.

For those on the south bank of the Lagoon adjacent to North House Lake and sheltered by the trees the conditions were quite benign, but for those on the west bank who were exposed to the strong wind, conditions were much more difficult with strong undertow and waves on the surface. It was a day when the bigger fish decided they didn’t want to show, and smaller fish dominated.

Keith Ward on the calmer southern bank fished the pole at 14.5 metres using ground bait laced with dead maggot, micro pellets and casters, feeding a small ball of this groundbait every half hour. He took a good mixed bag of small Skimmers, Roach, Rudd, and a decent 10 oz. Perch using a variety of hook baits, Maggots, dead Maggots, casters, pinkie and worms to take his fish, ending with 5lb 2oz.

Barry Roper on the more exposed western bank also fished a pole and caught most of his fish at 9m on caster. Barry commented as the wind picked up it made seeing and hitting bites much more difficult slowing his catch rate right down. He weighed in 4lb 2oz,

Third place was taken by Chris Howard also on pegged on the west bank. Chris said he had caught very little by midday, so decided to change tactics and set up a light waggler. He then fished down the edge and caught Dace and Roach on dead reds, wheat and tares over hemp. Chris said he wished he had done this earlier as he could have caught more and considerably boosted his finishing weight of 3lb 8oz.

Graham Stringer on the south bank started off by feeding about 6 or 7 large feeders of groundbait with a few maggots out in front at about 40 meters and left it for about two and a half hours to settle. While waiting for that to work he fished the pole at top kit plus 4 with red maggot on the hook about 6 foot deep, All he caught on this line were bleak so he decided to come in close fishing 18 inches deep to catch the Bleak, before trying his feeder line for about half an hour, but with no signs of any fish he went back on the short line until the end finishing with 3lb 4oz.

Many thanks to those who did the admin and the weighing teams, again a great team effort .

A disappointment this week was that as we weighed in we found a cache of empty beer bottles and larger tins which we cleared away, obviously left by a previous occupant of the swim, you must take your litter home

Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - 31st May 2026

Here is all this weeks news, information and catch reports from Luton Angling Club for the week ending 31st May 2026.

As the 2025/2026 season ends we thank all of our members that have renewed their memberships and also look forward to welcoming all our new members. 

A fairly quiet week for reports this week with just a couple of match reports coming in. Likely due to the very hot weather and that the carp were still spawning.

The midweek match was cancelled this week Due to the extremely hot weather and the lack of shade along the canal at the intended venue, it was decided that fishing will not take place for health and safety reasons.

Member wellbeing is our priority, and this decision was made to prevent any heat‑related health issues.

CRT National Canal Pairs Heat

Luton Angling Club were proud to host a national CRT Canal Pairs heat this Saturday, fished either side of the Three Locks. Eleven pairs took part — some travelling considerable distances to take part — there were several well‑known anglers among the line‑up. The eventual winners had travelled all the way from Wakefield.

Four of the pairs secured their qualification for the Grand Final later in the year.

The morning was very warm with bright sunshine, the temperature climbing to 28 C in the afternoon. The canal held good colour, but float presentation was hampered in some areas by the large amount of floating blossom which had blown from the bushes and moved backwards and forwards with boat locking. After the weigh in we all met at the Three Locks Pub for a well earned drink and the results.

Luton had four pairs entered, including one of our juniors Daniel Carr who was fishing with his dad Paul, but unfortunately, on this occasion none of our local Luton pairs qualified. The best result for a Luton Pair was Steve Lathwell & Danny Worth who came in 5th place just missing qualification.

The highest weights were recorded from B section Above the locks (Luton Section 4), while the fishing on section B below the locks (Luton section 4) was patchier.

Qualifying Pairs from this heat were:

1st Pair

Luke Wrzosek & Chloe Rayner

2nd Pair

Alex Clements & Tom Bolton

3rd Pair

Rob Bishop and John Weedon

4th Pair

Stephen Joy & Paul Cowern

Thanks to everyone on the Luton team who helped organise and run this event, which passed off very smoothly, without the help of all those involved in general organisation, pegging, booking in, organising the draw, running the bank, weighing the sections and collating the results we wouldn’t be able to run an event like this, so well done everyone.

Canal Pairs Heat

Daniel Carr - "A disappointing week"

Here is Daniel Carr's report from the canal pairs heat and another event that he took part in this week.

"This week I fished two qualifiers and missed and narrowly on Monday at makins for the Feva junior master final and this Saturday the canal pairs at three locks where I didn't even get close with my Dad.

Monday was tough as fish were spawning and couldn't fish margins. Luckily I was able to get 2 decent carp on the feeder and a skimmer also baby perch for 16lb 8oZ but I missed out by 2lb.

Today/Saturday was even tougher as canal fished poorly and there wasn't a lot of bites to be had as it came down to what was there and clearly nothing for me as I had two bites in the last three hours and a few skimmers early on to end with 10oZ and my dad 1oZ which put us right at the bottom on weight.

Hopefully over the coming weeks I'm able to start to get some more luck and go back to placing but you never know."

Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - Bank Holiday Monday 25th May 2026

Here’s the full round‑up of catch reports, news, and updates from Luton Angling Club for the week ending Sunday 24th May — including Bank Holiday Monday, 25th May.

A fairly quiet week for reports despite the nice weather, the lack of catch reports is likely due to the carp starting to spawn on North House and Beckerings towards the end of the week.

Lock Change 2026/27 Season

With 1 week left of the 2025/26 season any member that did not renew their membership MUST vacate North House Lake, Beckerings Reservoir and the Canal car park at Slapton by 8pm on Sunday 31st May. 

Any renewed member booked on for the night or wishing to stay beyond 8pm should ensure they have their NEW "Z" issue key with them in order to exit the venue. The locks will be changed from 8pm.

Carp Spawning
The Club wishes to inform all members that carp are currently spawning at Beckerings and North House Lake. This is a critical period in the breeding cycle, and it is essential that the fish are allowed to spawn without disturbance.

Due to the sporadic and unpredictable nature of spawning, it is not practical to close the venues while this activity takes place. Members are therefore asked to exercise appropriate caution and to support the welfare of the stock by adhering to the following guidance:

• Do not fish for carp while spawning activity is observed.
• Avoid fishing near active spawning areas even when targeting other species.
• Minimise disturbance to ensure the fish can complete this natural process safely.

Your co‑operation helps protect the long‑term health and sustainability of our fisheries. Thank you for supporting responsible angling across our waters.

Carp Spawning at North House Lake

Beckerings Reservoir

After noticing the carp congregating in the shallow, out of bounds areas on North House Lake clearly getting ready to spawn, Jason Mash changed his plans and managed to squeeze in a session on Beckerings just before the spawning started there too.

He had this absolute cracking mirror which was the best of two fish he had off the bottom. With the fish showing on the surface later on in the day, he fed floaters for an hour before casting a bait. As soon as the bait hit the water it was taken, unfortunately the hook pulled from the fish.

Bailiff Neil Cox did some maintenance work this week giving the grass around the reservoir a decent cut. It’s looking smart and ready for the start of the 2026/27 season. Our venue bailiffs work hard to keep the venues in great condition and the club really appreciates all their efforts and we are sure you do too.

Match Report 20th May 2026 Redbournebury Fishery.

It was another new venue for the Wednesday match group this week, the lake at Redbournebury.

This is a pretty lake of varying depths with a decent mixed head of fish. The lake has several islands with large Willow trees along the middle. Being fed from the river Ver (a designated Chalk stream) the lake is quite clear with just a tinge of colour. The water temperature was recorded at 13C

The weather was overcast but warm no rain was forecast, and we had a gusting breeze blowing along the lake. Despite the forecast in true Wednesday fashion, we had a brief spell of drizzle soon after we started!

First place this week was taken by Jin Tookey who gave a great display of fishing his pole. Jim tried for an hour for some silvers without a bite, and decided the lake was too deep and clear so he changed tactics and fished just off the bank of the island where he found a nice depth of 4ft at 14m.

He prepped this swim with micros and groundbait for half hour and then went on it, and although he found it difficult to hold pole in the wind, he managed to land 5 carp and lost another 2.

Dave Ridley who finished second fished at 13m using a waggler, with a single red maggot on the hook. He fed maggot, sweetcorn & casters throughout the match and initially caught small roach with the larger fish spread out over the whole match. He hooked a 3lb 8oz Chub 1 minute before the end!

Dave (Bream) Whillock fished to the island using a cage feeder with pro natural dark ground bait with 3 red maggots on a 16 hook to take his 3 Bream and finish 3rd.

This was a local venue and we will return to fish it again, hopefully when the weather is warmer and more settled than of late

Many thanks to those who did the admin and the weighing teams, again a great team effort

Water levels at Beckerings

As usual for this time of year water levels at Beckerings are dropping rapidly due to the irrigation pumping. Members should take care when landing fish as the banks can be slippery until they have dried out.

North House Lake - Wyboston
Jason Mash did another day session on North House Lake today, he had the lake all to himself. After an absolute pasting from the heavy downpours, the two fish he caught made it worthwhile.

One of our Junior Anglers Daniel Carr shared his experience from the CRT Let's Fish Regional Celebration that was held last weekend. Here is his report

"I fished my first regional of the year yesterday run by the CRT. Really happy how it went considering the peg I got.

I started the day not too happy with peg that I drew but it is what it is. So I set up two lines one 3m out fishing with hinder supercharged natural black ground bait and pinkies and the other one section of the far bank due to how shallow it was fishing ground bait with casters and chopped worm.

I started on the 3m line as per the rules of the match where I was able to pick of a few fish containing perch, roach and skimmers before moving over to the far bank.

But throughout the rest of the match the fish only came in short bursts and nothing for a bonus. Overall it was a decent day and can't be too unhappy as I was able to get 3rd place with 650grams"

Match Report for Wednesday 13th May 2026 - Report by Terry Vickers

The American singer songwriter, Demi Lovato wrote that” Expectations are just Disappointments waiting to happen “. The weather forecast for 13th May was changeable with sunny periods and occasional showers. Consequently 17 anglers turned up at the Town South Pound of the Grand Union Canal in Leighton Buzzard with expectations of such.

Expectation was reinforced with hope by benign weather being evident when arriving at the venue and drawing our pegs. Hope was bolstered by the absence of our Mentor, Leader and meteorological Jonah, Dennis Hunt, who normally puts a climatic damper on our proceedings.

Despite the recent cold snap at night, the canal looked piscatorally enticing. Tony Hickmott, our Climate Adviser, recorded a water temperature of 11 degrees Celsius, which roughly equated to the air temperature. The good weather continued until around 11 am.

Dennis Hunt had obviously decided that his garden needed water by then and donned the Goats Head to commence the rain dance. A heavy shower ensued and this was the pattern until around 2pm when the expected shower became a biblical rain and hail storm.

Once again, the overhanging trees adjacent to the towpath were of concern in the high wind and heavy rain. An example of this danger was observed by one angler when a tree upon the opposite bank of the canal snapped at the base of its trunk which proved to be rotten. Luckily nobody was nearby due to the weather, so no injury or damage occurred. Nonetheless this is becoming an issue of increasing urgency which the CRT / Local Authority should deal with as promptly as possible.

Once again, we are indebted to Barry Roper for his usual scouting mission to establish boat numbers moored in the pound and for setting out the pegs in the available gaps. There were several boats moored in the pound which made pegging less straightforward than it should have been. Thank you Barry. Also, thanks go to Tony Hickmott for standing in for Dennis to arrange draw balls, Match sheets, clipboards, pens and scales for weighing in. Additionally, Tony, ably assisted by Colin Holmes, undertook the weigh in at the end of the match – Thank you again Tony and Colin. We are truly blessed with such fantastic blokes who always pitch in to make matters as efficient and enjoyable as possible

Conditions on the Canal were good. There was some colour in the water and some signs of fish moving, which again enhanced our expectation. Fishing was disrupted by the passage of approximately 6 boats over the match period. These were, in the main, manoeuvred responsibly except one particular individual who insisted on passing through as tight up to the opposite bank as possible. One of our members advised him politely that the shallow water so close to the bank posed a risk of grounding the boat as well as disrupting the fishing. The response from the boat was not so polite. The counter response from the bank was equally curt and industrial accompanied by a dance of rage. The boat owner decided that discretion was the better part of valour and kept going to get away as quickly as possible. It is a shame that some individuals feel no responsibility for preserving the enjoyment of others enjoying the facilities which the canals offer to all.

The actual fishing along the stretch was somewhat patchy as the weights set out below illustrate. However, some anglers did manage to engage with some good-sized Bream in one particular part of the pound with top two weights coming from 2 consequetive pegs.

The winning weight deservedly went to Simon Foulkes. He drew peg 13 which held some good-sized mature Bream and Simon capitalised by fishing pinkie over groundbait at 12 metres. This resulted in the capture of 4 bream which weighed in at 11lbs 12oz,

In second place with 7lbs 1oz was Danny Worth on Peg 12, just below Simon which also obviously contained Bream of a similar stamp. Danny fished 2 lines at 6.00 metres and 11.00 metres respectively. Bread punch at 6.00m tempted one large bream and worm over Groundbait at 11.00m tempted another specimen.

Dave Whillock bucked the trend in 3rd place from Peg 10 using bread punch of 3mm – 6mm on a size 18 hook over liquidised bread at 6.00m to tempt a mixed bag of skimmers and roach for a weight of 5lbs 10oz.

Bart Bonito managed a valiant 4th place with 3lbs 14oz of small bream and perch. Quite an achievement considering that he had the great misfortune of a freak gust of wind causing a breakage to the No 7 section of his pole which limited the distance he could fish at for the second half of the match.

Two other anglers should be mentioned in dispatches. Sam Rose captured a good-sized hybrid fish which weighed in at 1lb. See Photo below. It is worthy of mention because none of us were sure what breed of fish it was. It has the characteristics of a chub, the fin colour of a Rudd and the head shape of a Bream. The only conclusion we could draw was that its mother was obviously of very loose morals.

Secondly, Les Burton on Peg 17 had some bad luck losing 6 fair sized fish over the 5 hours of the match. However, in true fisherman fashion, by the time he arrived back in the Car Park the 6 fair sized fish had grown into 6 Leviathans!!

The overall result of the Match was as follows: -

1st Simon Foulkes 11lbs 12oz

2nd Danny Worth 7lbs 1 oz

3rd Dave Whillock 5lbs 10oz

4th Bart Bonito 3lbs 14 oz

5th Dave Abbott 2lbs 13 oz

6th Syd Wilson 2lbs 9 oz

7th Colin Holmes 2lbs 4 oz

8th Tim Watts 2lbs 2 oz

9th Brian Shaw 1lb 13 oz

10th Sam Rose 1lb 11oz

11th Tony Hickmott 1lb 9 oz

12th Sean Leatherland 1lb 5 oz

13th Barry Roper 1lb 2 oz

14th Les Burton 15 oz

15th Mark Sessions 8oz

Joint 16th Dave Ridley & Terry Vickers 5 oz each

Finally, once again our thanks are due to the Tracey for her assistance with the weigh in and all the post-match record keeping including the hot fishin posting, as well as keeping Sean on the straight and narrow.

Our next match is on Wednesday 20th May 2026 which is to be held upon an away venue at Redbournebury Fishery Complex. Organisation for pegging, parking etc will be easier if people can advise the likelihood of their attendance at the earliest possible time.

Note that there is no admission to to the Fishery before 8.00am and the Fishery has strict rules on Tackle to be used. Draw at the venue at 8.30am, £5.00 optional pools plus £10.00 Fishery Ticket price. Fish 10.00am – 3.00 pm. The number of available pegs may be limited so book early.

For anyone thinking of joining us for the first time please message Dennis Hunt or Ray Burton so we know you are coming before turning up. Please bring your club membership book with you as you will be asked to produce it for your first appearance.
