Luton Angling Club Weekly News Report for the Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire & St Neots Cambridgeshire Area. Week Ending 23rd August 2020

Here is this weeks round up of catch reports and news from all Luton Angling Club Waters. Keep the reports coming in and we would especially like to get some reports from our River sections so please do let us know how you get on if you visit any of them.


Beckerings Reservoir 

Nick Duffy had a 33lb Mirror Carp from Beckerings on Monday which isn’t one of the named 30lb plus fish.


Kempston Lake

Kempston lake is fishing well at the moment and multiple fish have been reported this week. A nice 24lb Common for James Newills at Kempston Lake on Monday evening.



Dale Carter also had success catching three carp in the last week he said they were all hard fighting mid teens and great fun.


Neil Cox was also at Kempston and had two fish one at 14lb and the other at 19lb 12oz. He forgot to press record on his phone so did not get a picture of the smaller fish. He was using mad baits nutz pop up on a ronnie rig with a PVA stick with crushed nutz over thin silk weed.


Ricky Angell also had success at Kempston landing four fish the largest one weighing in at 29lb 9oz.


Grand Union Canal

Dave Murdoch and Dave Farmer fished Slapton on Thursday afternoon and had a good fun session catching lots of Roach, Gudgeon and Skimmers successful baits were Maggot and Sweetcorn.


Wednesday Match Report by Dennis Hunt.

Seven members of the Wednesday group met at Cooks Wharf this week to fish ‘Away’ on the Tring water which is being used for the Canal Pairs heat on Sunday.Two of our members are competing and wanted to practice, so we had all agreed to fish with them.

It was overcast when we met in the car park, but this soon turned into steady rain as we made our way down the towpath. The rain got heavier as we set up, and continued through the day, but we were soon into the fish with many having a bright first hour at 4 Metres. All the usual canal baits scored well fish being taken on Squatt, Pinkies and Caster. The winner and second who are fishing as a pair Sunday fished the waggler over in what turned out to be an extremely wide and deep section of Canal.

Despite the persistent rain all who came enjoyed the day. There is no picture of the winning bag as Richard was so anxious to get out of the rain he tipped them back before the camera was produced!
