Here is this week’s round up of news, catch reports and match results from all Luton Angling Club waters.
North House Lake
Paul Trew sent in a picture of one of the NHL stockies weighing 13lb 10oz - Comparing photos from the stocking back in October 2017 this looks very much like Number 3 that went in at 6lb 3oz. Photos and the weights of all the 21 fish that were stocked back then can be found on the club website.

The 21 fish stocked weighed between 4lb 9oz and 8lb 2oz when introduced to the water. This reference gallery is useful for seeing how much the stockies have grown on in 3 years. Let us know if you catch any of the others.
Brett Collins also sent in a picture he thinks is Stockie number 5 which he caught last week at 14lb 10oz it seems like the ones we have seen are doing well and now range between 12 and 16lb in weight.
Mark Brooks fished at Eaton Ford this week and despite the very windy conditions caught a number of roach.
Wyboston South Lagoon
Regular Wyboston angler Wojciech had a Tench of 4lb from the South Lagoon.
Wednesday Match Report
Five fished the Wednesday Knock up this week on a beautiful autumn morning on the Ouse at Wyboston. The day started with a slight nip, with an air temperature around 13 degrees and a light wind. The air temperature rose slightly during the day ending up at around 16 degrees. and we had some slight rain (again) when packing away.
The river looked in super form, with a good colour and flow, water temperature this week was a constant at 15 degrees. The venue fished very well, and we all had a very enjoyable close match, with four of the anglers with nets over 5lb. The match could have been won from any of the pegs used.
Roach showed well, some decent size fish being taken, and made up the bulk of the catches, along with several Perch, the biggest of these was a fish of 1lb 6oz taken by Barry Roper.
All methods were used, Pole, Stick float and feeder, with fish being taken on Hemp, Tare, Maggot and Caster.
Results
1st Steve Osmond 6lbs 6oz
2nd Dave Britton 5lbs 7oz
3rd Barry Roper 5lbs 6oz
4th Dennis Hunt 5lbs 3oz
