55yr & older Wednesday Social Matches
If you're a Luton AC member 55yrs+ and free on a Wednesday then why not join us for a series of social matches. We will be inviting members of Tring Anglers so that we can alternate venues and also look at a couple of commercial fisheries. This will commence on Wednesday 15th May at the Globe Inn just outside of Leighton Buzzard, postcode LU7 2TA. The draw will take place in the car park at 9.00am. Fishing from 10.00am to 3.00pm. Please park at the far end of the car park. A small charge is made by the pub to park in their car park. The match is free to fish and there are optional pools but do bring your Luton AC or Tring Anglers membership books.
NORTH HOUSE LAKE
Paul Sweet fishing North House Lake managed 3 including Pecs which came out a week ago at 30lb. Paul couldn't weigh any of his fish as his scales are broken but an angler close by did weigh the common during the night for him at 25lb
.
James Harrison tempted a 25lb common from North House Lake along with a low double and managed the mirror called Popeye at 26lb 2oz mirror in a previous session a couple of days before which was his first fish from the lake and came during a storm.
Nicholas Goodman dropped into North House Lake for a quick after work session and caught one of the stockies at 8lb 8oz. This fish was stocked 5/10/17 at 5lb 11oz so that's a 49% increase in just 18 months! Keep good photos of the stockies coming as its great to chart their progress, thanks.
Phil Randall continued his recent success back on Luton AC waters when he arrived at North House Lake for a 2 night session after 10-12yrs away. Spending 2 hours finding a clear spot he was happy with and within 30 mins he was into a 27lb 2oz common which was immaculate apart from damage to its tail caused by line through being weeded during a previous capture which we are already aware of. Just to dispel any otter myths the North House otter fence is checked at least every week and has held firm against otters for many years!
Rod and Charlie fished North House Lake during the Bank Holiday weekend and Charlie had an 18lb 5oz Common followed by one of the stockies at 8lb 5oz and the biggest a common at falling to Rod at 28lb 7oz.
BECKERINGS RESERVOIR
Beckerings Reservoir has been quietly producing 2lb+ roach for quite a few years and we believe theres now a good head of fish around the 2lb mark. Colin Holmes caught a 2lb 2oz specimen this week.
Phil Randall landed a 24lb 5oz mirror.
KEMPSTON LAKE
Phil Randall had a nice dark common of 20lb 4oz common last week.
New Member Peter and his 11yr old son Toby fished Kempston Lake for the first time this weekend and caught a 18lb 6oz mirror.
GRAND UNION CANAL
Ty Foster enjoyed the weather last weekend made even better with a nice mirror
while his friend Jamie Gladish had a couple of commons the smaller one is another of the 3000 stockies that went in at Grove & the Globe
FISHERY SECURITY
Just a polite reminder that most of our waters are accessed via locked gates so that undesirables are kept out who are intent on stealing fish/equipment/breaking into cars/flytipping and in the case of North House to keep the otters out! We have had a few instances of gates not being secured or sometimes left wide open which cannot continue so do please ensure that the gates are always locked properly once you've gone through one. Many thanks.
Steve
