Andy Ayres caught his first ever carp Friday evening. It was from Beckerings and weighed 18lbs 8oz.
On his first session on Beckerings Allan Howard-King did a 48hr session and had 3 carp. Two were Commons at 16lb 5oz and 18lb 8oz and a lovely scaled mirror at 21lb 8oz a great couple of days fishing.Also at Beckerings Carl Ramsay had a nice Common of 28lb 10oz its a nice welcome back after 10 years away from the club he also had a couple of Bream the largest at 8lb.
Grand Union Canal
On Sunday 19th July Martin Cook had a nice 9lb 6oz mirror on sticky krill it's the 1st carp he has had in a couple of years from the canal. It looks very much like one of the 3000 stockies that the club introduced to the canal some years ago at only 2-3" long.
Ian Inness had this 25lb lump out of the Grand Union Canal on Thursday. He fished over a bed of particles with an 18mm pink fruit wafter he said he was buzzing as it's his first ever canal carp.
On Wednesday, Committee Member, Lavendon Bailiff and work party volunteer Bob Burdiak visited the members only car park at Slapton and strimmed the entire car park. The work party team, bailiffs and club management who are all unpaid volunteers spend a lot of time behind the scenes keeping the venues in top top condition for you.
North House Lake
Junior member Patrick Szczerbinski had a 20lb Common from North House. His dad Artur then had a 22lb Common on pop up sweetcorn.
Lee Moore had a great 48 hour session with commons of 27lb 2oz and 24lb 4oz and a 23lb Mirror.
Devin Gregory had this Awesome Common from Kempston last Sunday morning at 32lb 4oz.
Match Reports
Three of the Wednesday match group fished at Eaton Ford on Thursday this week and Dennis Hunt sent in his post match report."It was good to see another new face as Trevor had not joined us before.It was a warm and overcast day with a tricky and sometimes blustery downstream wind, which made float presentation difficult. There were plenty of bites on Caster, Maggot and Hemp, although they were quick and tricky to hit. Feeder, Pole and whip were the main methods used
All the anglers kept missing bites, occasionally connecting with the target Roach. Trevor Bunnage got completely smashed on the feeder about 1pm, he never saw the fish which tore away and broke 6lb line, the bait on this occasion being worm. Dennis had a big Perch follow a hooked Roach to the side
The final result this week was very close, it was good day out in good company.
Dennis Hunt 3lb 6oz,
Barry Roper 3lb 2oz
Trevor Bunnage 2lb 10oz
Next week we are going to fish at Slapton below the lock next Wednesday, Meet in the Club car park for 9 am walk off draw, Fish 10 till 3, £5.00 optional pools.
Visiting match group Potters Bar had a good day out and a close match at Biddenham on Sunday 19th July. The Match was won with 6lbs 4oz of mainly Roach taken on Maggot and Caster along the edge. Second was 5lb 4oz of Roach, taken on Hemp and Tare, and in 3rd place the weight was 5lb 2oz, again on hemp and tares fished mid river.
Many participants reported fish being taken by Pike ranging from small jack pike to much larger fish with Roach up to 12oz being taken.
Great to hear a visiting Club enjoying their day out on our water.
