Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area. Week Ending 19th July 2020

Here is this weeks round up of club news and catch reports received from Luton AC waters. We really appreciate any information, reports and stories from any of our waters and you don't have to catch a monster sized fish to feature in our weekly reports.

Beckerings Reservoir 
James Hunter had a 29lb 12oz Mirror on Sunday 5th July.  A new personal best and he said it put up one hell of a fight!- My apologies to James for the late reporting of this catch as I missed the message he sent in

Also At Beckerings Neil Cox fished a very short session on Monday eveing and had a 23lb 6oz Mirror. Short sessions can often be very productive on Beckerings when conditions are right.
Mark Brookman had his first Beckerings Mirror after catching 6 Commons on the bounce. He didn't mention the weight but looks a good size and a stunning fish.

Regular contributor Rod Gladston sent us a picture of Grandson Charlie with a 7lb 8oz  Bream, caught 24 hours into a 48 hour session at Beckerings.
North House Lake 
Adam Eldrett had 4 pristine commons from North House Lake on his first ever overnight session. The largest was 22lb 6oz and he also had 3 mid doubles.
This pristine 18lb Common put up a hell of a fight with Neil Cox on his first ever session at North House. He said at one point it went for the overhanging trees and it was a bit frantic feeling the line grating on the branches he said it's one of the best fights he has had from a carp.

Nick Darvall caught this nice chunky common weighing 22lb 9oz from North House Lake in the early hours of the morning.

River Ouse - Lavendon Mill
Bailiff Bob fished the Ouse at Lavendon today and took a keepnet (something he doesnt usually do) in the hope of showing a catch of roach from the upstream stretch. He had good results on a waggler using sweetcorn and wheat as bait. The net was emptied after an hour and a half, from then it was catch and release as the roach kept coming. A pike took one roach but it didn’t put the fish off. The river was virtually still but had a hint of colour.

Wednesday Knock Up Match Group
The knock up match group arrived at Wyboston on Wednesday to find a river that looked in perfect fettle with good colour and moderate flow however all that shimmers isn't gold!

The day was overcast, and heavily at times and damp with sporadic outbreaks of rain and drizzle, and at times it felt more like October than July.

Conditions proved challenging with fish quite hard to come by, The anglers fished a variety of methods, stick float, pole and feeder and all caught fish, but nobody established a steady catch rate.

Nuala Gray turned out the days winner today with 3lb 13oz, Barry Roper weighed 3lb-10oz John Gray 2lb 10oz and Dennis Hunt bringing up the rear with just 2lb.

This week we will fish Eaton Ford, but please note we will fish on THURSDAY. Meet for 9am draw in the car park, fish 10 till 3 £5.00 optional pools. Any club member is welcome to attend and take part
