Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - Week Ending 11th February 2018

February isn't recognised as one of the better fishing months but its been a great week for reports despite the frosty conditions followed with rain and sleet showers and even some snow!


BECKERINGS RESERVOIR
The reservoir is fishing really well with Luke Marvin catching some lovely looking mirrors to 24lb plus a solitary common all falling to Thripster Baits.







Craig Clark managed three fish to 21lb 6oz on Hydrabaits TNT pop ups.



Nicholas Goodman landed a 20lb 4oz mirror on Mad Baits Pandemic.
We hear that the mirror known as Donkey Head has been out this week at 32lb to an undisclosed captor.
Currently the best method seems to be fishing a white pop up out towards the middle of the reservoir.

GRAND UNION CANAL
Silviu Stoica lure fished the Grand Union Canal in the centre of Leighton Buzzard catching two good sized perch at 35cm & 36cm along with a smaller perch, a small chub and a pike with all of the fish falling to the same lure.









SOUTH LAGOON
Predator angler Pawel Ceks managed a season best 22lb pike from the South Lagoon

and Wojciech who was fishing with him landed another good pike of 19lb.

COACHING
This weekend our coaching team were helping out at a Taster Session at Foxton on the Grand Union Canal. Saturday was damp and cold which put off the fish and some attendees but reports so far are that Sunday has been much improved despite a hail storm to contend with.



Sadly we had an incident at Beckerings Reservoir this week where one angler decided to use the car park as a toilet leaving his/her deposit for all to see along with discarded tissue. No attempt to clear it away and if we do find out who was responsible there will almost certainly be a ban imposed.
