Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - Week Ending 24th February 2019

NORTH HOUSE LAKE

Ethan Griffiths caught a 24lb 12oz mirror 

while Dave Brown managed a double figure common.


BECKERINGS RESERVOIR
Conor Healy tempted a double figure common
 
with Dave Brosnan banking a nice pike.

Our bailiff team has asked us to remind members that now the water level in the reservoir is back up to the platforms it is now fishing from the platforms only and bivvies must be erected on the platform only and not on the perimeter track which as part of the terms of our lease has to be kept clear at all times.

CORRECTLY POSITIONED BIVVIE ON PLATFORM

INCORRECTLY POSITIONED BIVVIE NOT ON THE PLATFORM & OBSTRUCTING THE PERIMETER TRACK

GRAND UNION CANAL
The pike fishing on the canal has been good this winter proved by an abundance of lure anglers like Silviu Stoica whose latest catch was a very light coloured pike on an rubber lure. 

Nearby Callum fished with his dad Phil and caught 48 gudgeon, 10 perch and 10 small roach/skimmers with all of the fish coming to a 20 hook and either pinkie or punch as bait.

SOUTH LAGOON
The pike have started to shoal up ready for spawning and the lagoon is one place where multiple catches can be made. Marek Zanko managed 4 male pike to 6lb during his trip.

Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area - Week Ending 3rd February 2019

BECKERINGS RESERVOIR

Shane Clarke managed a 17lb 4oz common
 
with the two 30lb+ fish making an appearance since the water level has gone up along with many of the 20's although a lot of the reservoir regulars are rather publicity shy. The level has gone up 3-4 feet in the last couple of weeks so should hopefully be full again by the end of Feb/early March. The farmer tells us that he wont be cutting back the willows this year but the club will be trimming some of the nuisance branches before the level gets up to the platforms again and makes the trimming too difficult. Our bailiff team tell us that float anglers have been catching some of the hard fighting pristine chub and ide introduced a few months ago which is good news as we hoped they would provide some winter sport outside of the usual carp and pike.

GREAT OUSE
Lots of jack pike are being caught on lures from all of our Ouse sections and by keeping mobile its a great way to stay warm in the cold weather.



GRAND UNION CANAL
Much of the canal has been frozen this week but some nice perch have been caught in the clear areas on lures.
