The lake owner called me in the week and said bream to 14lb were being caught at around 30yds by spodding out a big bed of pellet and fishing a feeder over it. He said that 5-6 double figure bream during a day session was common.

Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report 7th May 2017

A very quiet week for reports with only North House Lake regular Ethan Griffiths sending in photos.

Ethan caught the common known as the Baby Lobe Tail at 27lb 9oz which continues his run of success on the lake.

Elsewhere work has started to restore our Great Ouse river fishery at Eaton Ford which unfortunately had been allowed to become unfishable due to a lack of volunteers and funding some years ago. An Angling Trust grant of £4500 funded by rod licence money has meant we can employ a contractor to carry out much of the heavy work needing large machinery while the clubs new band of volunteers will match the funding with man hours working at the fishery until the end of the year.

Luton Angling Club will be running our first angling 'Taster Session' of the year on the Grand Union Canal at the Globe Linslade LU7 2TA on Sunday 14th May.

We will have our qualified coaches in attendance between 11am and 4pm and if you have not fished before and want to try come and give it a go.

You don't need to bring any tackle, bait or rod licences, its ALL provided and the coaching sessions are FREE. Individual sessions usually last 30 minutes each, but if we have spac...e and you want to you are welcome to stay and fish on.
Our very first Taster Session last year at the Three Locks went very well with a 3 yr old being our youngest attendee and an 83 yr old being the eldest so you're never too young or too old to give fishing a go for the first time or get back into it after time away.
We would appreciate you telling us you intend to come by giving us notice via the 'Learn to Fish' page on our website or text Dennis who is one of our qualified coaches on 07956 685316

Members have by now received their 2017/18 renewals and they can renew either on line, by post or in one of our Tackle Shop outlets.
