Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - Week Ending 25th March 2018

 NORTH HOUSE LAKE

Braidan Tidmarsh managed a lovely dark common of 21lb 8oz


SOUTH LAGOON
Pawel Ceks tempted a 6lb pike


GRAND UNION CANAL
Bailiff Michel Wilkins braved the bitter wind straight in his face at Grove marina for a catch of 8lb comprising 3 bream and half a dozen small fish in just 2.5hrs fishing punch. Sundays better weather saw half a dozen anglers at the marina all catching.

NEW WATERS FOR LUTON AC MEMBERS
For the 2018/19 season via an arrangement with our friends at WDNAC Luton AC members will be able to fish over 6 miles of the River Nene around Wellingborough including the Embankment, Ditchford Main, Ditchford Backbrook, Hardwater Mill, a short section of the River Ise as well as a long section of the Great Ouse at Chellington near Harrold which is only 4 miles from our Lavendon Mill river stretch. Some parts are very urban with others out in the countryside. When we visited last weekend the rivers were very high but the photos hopefully give a flavour of whats on offer. The rivers contain all the usual species to specimen sizes with chub over 7lb, pike over 20lb, very big carp plus specimen sized barbel and perch all caught recently. There are also great shoals of roach and bream for the pleasure angler. No fishing from March 15th to June 15th inclusive.
We are always on the look out for stillwaters so if anyone knows of any becoming available to purchase outright or rent then do send us an email many thanks.

WORK PARTY
Saturdays work party at Beckerings was attended by a total of 9 volunteers mainly the usual suspects Bob B, Barry S and his friend Rob (a work party newbie), Neville H, Kevin H, Dave M, Mark S and his son and one other whose name we did not get. We filled in the majority of potholes along the track (members are requested to drive slowly) we also repaired the barbed wire fence next to the ramp and lots of the small willow branches left in the water from the tree cut were removed. Sadly a lot of litter was collected and a large number of alcohol cans mainly K cider and Scrumpy Jacks cans. Members must take their little home or face being banned from the club.
Dave
 and Kevin also improved Platform 9 by installing additional scaffold bars and beams as the deckboards were quite springy due to the overhang. Bacon Rolls and tea was prepared for the volunteers.
